This is a privately owned reference site with no affiliation to Des Moines County, any government body, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offers services for credit, employment, insurance, tenant screening, or another FCRA-covered purpose. The site points visitors toward jail and public-record resources in Des Moines County, Iowa. It is neither a private investigation firm nor a consumer reporting agency.
The Site's Limited Role
Des Moines County Busted Mugshots is a private reference service. It does not store official records and cannot confirm custody, release a person, alter a case, accept a public-record request for an agency, or file court papers. Only the office holding a record can give an official response.
Pages point toward resources such as the Des Moines County Sheriff's Office, the Correctional Center, Burlington arrest logs, Iowa Courts Online, the Iowa Department of Corrections, and third-party research tools. A link does not turn this site into an agent of the destination.

- Do not interfere with the site's operation or another visitor's access.
No Consumer Reports

Custody, release, charges, and public records can change without warning.

Iowa Code chapter 22 requests must go to the public body that holds the requested record.
