I never knew that so much criminal data is available online. Your site is amazing,
I have a new hobby!
Mark B, Newport, RI
I am a retired police officer and letme tell you that the information that
you have you could only access if you were in law enforcement. This is truly
revolutionary that people can check criminal records online.
Frank S, Toledo, OH
To be honest I am always skeptical of these investigative sites on the net
and I was duped a few times. Your site has real records and not a bunch of links
to other sites.
Victor T, Wilmington, NC
I am on the Board for our State Wide Private Investigator
Association (PIAU). I have recommended your site and services to all our members.
Alan P, Los Angeles, CA
"Looking through this database revealed some
questionable behavior about my potential business partner. I'm grateful that
I found this out prior to consumating our deal. Immeasurable thanks!”
Leena J – Staten Island, NY
“You have an extremely powerful criminal
search engine. With just one quick search I was able to search for all kinds
of criminal and court records and plus do a sex offender check. Fantastic job”
Lynda R – Princeton, NJ
“Through your service, I was able to find
a lawsuit which was filed against me more than 15 years ago. I never thought
possible that such old data exists online”
Darren K – Milwaukee, WI
“With your information, I feel like I have
every courthouse and their records under my fingertips. Good job on compiling
such a huge database!”
Steve E – Lancaster, PA
“You guys are the best. I am adopted and
I used your service to help me find my birth mother. I was almost 45 and she
was over 70, but better late than never. Without you guys I never would have
tracked her down. Thanks again.”
Lucia P
“Thanks to your site I was able to track
down over 18 dear friends from the Hudson High School Class of '78 and remind
them to attend their 30 year class reunion. I missed them so much and can't
thank you enough for helping us to reunite.”
