The Most Effective Way to Perform a Newton County Warrant Search

The aim of this article is to show you how to conduct a Newton County warrant search so as to enable you to check whether people around you have a criminal history. These people can be a potential employee, a nanny you want to hire for your kids, your elderly parents' nurse or even a new person you have just started dating.

What are arrest warrants?

Newton County warrants authorize the police to incarcerate a person based on suspicion that he/she was involved in an unlawful act. Every warrant must be signed by a judge, which makes it valid indefinitely until the suspect is apprehended.

Where to begin your inquiry

We strongly recommend starting every Newton County warrant search at the sheriff office since they are in charge of executing all arrest orders issued by the court.

There isn't any warrant list on the sheriff's website, so you will need to conduct your investigation in person by visiting the Public Information Unit at their office (15151 Alcovy Road NE, Covington, Georgia 30014. Office hours Monday-Friday 8am-4pm). Once you are there, you can ask whether a certain individual is wanted by the police. For additional details, you had better call the Warrant Unit at 678-625-1411.

Using the court to seek information

A Newton County warrant search can be conducted at the Superior Court. You will be required to file an open record request. For more information on this procedure, dial 770-784-2035

Using the state's databases

It's important that you remember that some of the people you want to check may have a criminal record in other places in Georgia. A Newton County warrant search will present you only with limited information restricted to the local level.

To run a background check in other counties, refer to the online GA felon search managed by the GBI. This broader database allows you to search by a person's name and it covers the whole state. However, it doesn't come cheap. Each person you will check will cost you $15.
