Questions about official Putnam County criminal records must go to the government office that created or maintains the file. The contacts below route police reports to the correct law-enforcement counter, court documents to the proper clerk, custody searches to corrections, and fingerprint records to the West Virginia State Police Criminal Identification Bureau.

This Is Not a Government Office. This private resource cannot retrieve or correct records, conduct an official check, issue certified copies, or receive an expungement filing. Contact the responsible public office directly.
