Removing your record from PublicPoliceRecord
Still serving arrest records, but the newest one we saw was from 2018 and the host drops connections at random.
PublicPoliceRecord is still up. That contradicts what several removal guides imply and what we ourselves recorded on an earlier pass, so we are stating it plainly: on the day we checked, the site returned a working arrest-record search, a jail inmate lookup and crime-statistics pages. What it did not return was anything recent — the newest booking record we saw was dated April 2018.
The site is also unstable. Repeated requests to the same paths, on the same day, failed outright. A site that answers sometimes is harder to deal with than one that is plainly gone.
What this site is
- The domain was registered on 14 August 2020 through GoDaddy and sits behind a large content delivery network.
- It describes itself as the largest and most thorough crime statistic website in the world, and publishes crime statistics covering roughly 1990 to 2014 alongside its arrest search.
- The content is stale. The most recent booking record we observed was dated 21 April 2018. Whether it still ingests new records is not established — an old record proves the archive, not the pipeline.
- The host is unreliable. Requests to the homepage, the opt-out path and the statistics pages all failed on repeat attempts within the same day, and one reputation-scanning service reports the site as effectively unused with a missing certificate.
- No operator, company, litigation, regulatory action or press coverage naming this site could be found. It is anonymous in a way that makes a formal statutory demand difficult to direct.
How removal actually works
What is published
Removal guides point to an opt-out path on the site and a privacy address at the domain. We could not confirm either responds, because the host failed on every attempt we made to reach them.
What it charges
Nothing stated. No fee appears anywhere, and no removal guide reports one.
Try the opt-out anyway
It costs nothing and an intermittent host is not a refusing one. Send the exact URL of your listing and keep a copy of what you sent and when.
If nothing answers
Work the search result instead. If the page is genuinely unreachable, a refresh request is the tool — though note it will be denied if Google can still fetch the page and finds your text on it.
What the removal industry charges for this site
Four removal companies publish pages for this site. None states a price, and none mentions that the content is years out of date.
One guide updated in March 2026 walks readers through a five-step process at an opt-out path and a privacy address, then upsells automated removal across a claimed 1,500 brokers.
One is worth flagging as a technique rather than a price. A vendor page renders today's date in its title — whatever day you visit — while its actual last revision was in 2023. A page that always looks updated is not the same as a page that is.
Where Google comes into it
The exploitative-removal route does not apply, because no payment is demanded. And the refresh tool has a specific limit that matters here: a request is denied if the text you describe is still present on the live page. On an intermittently-available site, that is a real risk — Google may reach the page on an attempt where you could not. Establish whether the page is truly gone before relying on that route.
What we would charge you for, and what we would not
- Send the opt-out yourself first. It costs nothing, and with a host this unreliable, persistence is most of the technique.
- Do not accept a quote from anyone who has not looked at the site this week. Several published guides describe this site inaccurately, in both directions — some treat it as fully operational, some as dead.
- Where we are worth paying: staying on it. An intermittent host needs repeated, dated, documented attempts, and that record is also what a later statutory or platform request will rest on.
Common questions
Is PublicPoliceRecord still online?
Yes, though barely. It served a working arrest-record site when we checked, and failed on repeated attempts the same day. Guides describing it as simply gone are wrong, and so were we on an earlier pass.
Is my record still on it?
Possibly. The newest booking we saw was from April 2018, so the archive is real but old. Whether it still adds new records is not established.
Does it charge for removal?
No fee appears anywhere on the site, and no removal guide reports one.
Why do removal guides describe it so differently?
Because most of them have not looked recently. One guide updated in March 2026 gives a confident step-by-step process at paths we could not get a response from. Check the site yourself before you buy anything.
Try the free route first
Google removes your phone number, home address, email and — since February 2026 — government ID numbers at no cost through its own tool. More than 10 million people have used it. It does not cover arrest records, so it will not touch the listing on this page, but it is free and worth running before you pay anyone for anything.
