Massac County Busted Mugshots is privately owned and is not affiliated with any government body, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. Neither this service nor its advertising partners provides FCRA-covered services. The pages help people locate Massac County and Illinois public-record resources, but they are not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.
What This Service Is
This is a private reference site. It does not store official jail rosters, booking records, court files, or agency databases, and it cannot confirm custody, release a person, or file a document for a visitor. It points toward the Massac Sheriff app, police and sheriff FOIA routes, court contacts, IDOC, federal locators, and local reporting.
The descriptions are informational. They do not change a public body’s duties under Illinois FOIA, including the written-request rules in 5 ILCS 140/3, and they do not replace the originating office’s current instructions.
Acceptable Use
Visitors agree to use the pages lawfully and with respect for other people. The following conduct is prohibited:
- Breaking the law or helping another person break it
- Using information to stalk, harass, threaten, intimidate, or harm someone
- Making a prohibited decision about another person with the material
- Trying to enter systems, accounts, or data without authorization
- Running bots, scrapers, crawlers, or bulk extraction tools without written permission
- Interfering with availability, security, or another visitor’s use
FCRA Use Is Prohibited
Massac County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not offer background checks, consumer reports, or screening services, and neither the site nor its advertising partners should be used for an FCRA-covered purpose. Visitors agree not to use the information for:
- Employment, hiring, promotion, or firing decisions
- Tenant, housing, or rental decisions
- Credit, lending, or insurance decisions
- Licensing, permits, or government-program eligibility
- Any other purpose regulated by the FCRA
Booking information is an accusation and a custody event, not proof of guilt. The legal notice and this section do not turn a third-party tool into an official record.
Outside Links and Tools
Links may lead to the Massac Sheriff, Metropolis Police, Illinois courts, IDOC, BOP, ICE, legal-aid services, local news, or outside search tools. A link is provided for reference and is not an endorsement. Massac County Busted Mugshots does not control an outside provider’s content, price, results, privacy practices, security, or availability. Visitors should read the destination’s terms before using it or sending information.
No Warranty
The pages and links are offered “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent allowed by law, no warranty is made about:
- Accuracy, completeness, or current status
- Continuous access or uninterrupted uptime
- Freedom from errors, bugs, or security weaknesses
- Completeness of any partner search result
Custody status, court records, agency contact details, and public websites change. Nothing here is an official statement from a sheriff, police department, court, corrections office, or government agency.
Liability Limits
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Massac County Busted Mugshots and the people who operate it are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to or use of the pages, linked tools, or information, including a decision to contact an agency or rely on an outdated detail.
Your Indemnity Promise
A visitor agrees to defend and hold harmless Massac County Busted Mugshots, its operators, and its content partners from claims, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from the visitor’s use of the service, violation of these terms, unlawful conduct, or misuse of linked information.
Ownership of Materials
Unless another owner is identified, the text, layout, graphics, logo, code, and other materials used for Massac County Busted Mugshots belong to the service or its content partners. No visitor may copy, republish, distribute, sell, modify, or create a derivative work from them without written permission. Government and outside-source links remain subject to their owners’ rights.
Term Changes
These terms may be revised at any time. A new version becomes effective when it is posted here, unless a later date is stated. Continued use after a change means the visitor accepts the revised terms.
Access May End
Access to some or all of the service may be limited, suspended, or blocked at any time, with or without notice, for any reason. That includes suspected abuse, security concerns, a legal requirement, or a breach of these terms.
Illinois Law Applies
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Illinois, without turning the service into a government office. Any permitted dispute should be filed in a court located in Illinois. If a public-record question concerns the sheriff or another public body, the current Illinois statute and the agency’s process control.
Severability
If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. The affected language should be narrowed only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
Questions About These Terms
Questions about this private service may be sent through Contacts. Questions about custody, release, a warrant, a booking record, or a court case must go to the responsible official office.
