Questions about official Randolph County criminal records usually belong with the office that created or maintains the document. The contacts below route court files to the Circuit Clerk, sheriff records to the county agencies, and statewide history inquiries to Illinois State Police.

This Is Not a Government Office. This private reference resource cannot retrieve official records, perform an official check, correct or remove a record, or receive an expungement filing. Contact the responsible public office for those services.
