Mugshot Websites
We track thousands of websites that publish peoples' arrest records and mugshots.
Below you'll find a non-exhaustive list of mugshot websites. These sites are used by people to search for and find arrest records and mugshot photos.
Because people are often required to pay or hire a mugshot removal service to get personal information, arrest records, and mugshot photos removed from these sites, they've become highly controversial in recent years.
