About New London County Criminal History

New London County is a geographic county, not an operating county government. Its criminal records are divided among municipal and tribal police, Connecticut Superior Court, the State Police Bureau of Identification, the Connecticut Department of Correction, and the Connecticut Sex Offender Registry. This private site organizes those distinct routes so readers can identify the office, official portal, address, or telephone number that matches the record they need.

Why We Built This Site

Connecticut abolished county government in 1960 and county sheriffs in 2000, so there is no New London County records counter that holds every file. Police reports stay with the department that created them. Connecticut Superior Court clerks maintain filed charges and dispositions, while the Connecticut Department of Emergency Services and Public Protection, Division of State Police, State Police Bureau of Identification maintains identity-linked state criminal histories. CT DOC reports state custody, and DESPP operates the Connecticut Sex Offender Registry. We bring together verified contacts, official search routes, fees, and request steps for those separate custodians.

What We Cannot Do

This is a privately run reference site. We have no connection to a Connecticut court, police department, or state agency. There are firm limits on what we can provide:

  • We cannot run an official background check or pull a criminal record for anyone
  • We cannot file erasure petitions, records requests, or any other paperwork on your behalf
  • We cannot issue certified copies of any criminal record, court document, or rap sheet
  • We cannot give legal advice or explain how a specific charge or case applies to you
  • We cannot guarantee that every phone number, fee, or address listed on this site is current right now

Only the actual custodian, such as a police department, Superior Court clerk, SPBI, or CT DOC, can issue or confirm its official record.

Search Partners

Outside providers power search boxes that appear on some pages. Each provider controls its service, results, prices, and terms. A paid enrollment reached through one of those tools may produce a referral fee for us, which supports public access to the site. We neither select the provider's results nor set its charges.
