  • Where can I find in Oklahoma if arrest records show up in background checks when the offender was not fingerprinted?
    When I asked others "Do arrest records show up in background checks when the offender was not fingerprinted?", I heard several different answers. Even when I'm asking several people at the same time, I still get each with their version of what will happen and why. Going online and looking up the answer took some searching, but after a few pages here and there. The state of Oklahoma's bureau of investigation provides the public with background checks. Although these are named background checks, they are criminal history searches; you will not get other types of records such as divorces, lawsuits, driving records, or anything not criminal. You can obtain felonies and serious misdemeanors.
