Criminal court records show the criminal history of a person, including traffic infractions and misdemeanor and felony crimes. These records are available online through the Circuit Clerk. These records include information about the defendant, charges, the timeline of hearings, arrest dates, mug shot, physical description of the offender, offender’s attorney, and the judge hearing the case. Mugshots can also be viewed through the Madison County Sheriff’s Office website. You can search by name, case number, or date filed. You can request court records from the Circuit Clerk for many court records, along with the municipal courts, with the exception of US District Court records.
