ICHAT - Internet Criminal History Tool - Background Checks

Anyone can search the official MSP criminal history record database for $10.00 per search, using MasterCard or Visa. The Michigan criminal history database is updated daily with felony and misdemeanor conviction information provided by law enforcement, prosecuting attorneys and courts throughout the State of Michigan.

This search includes only Michigan felony or misdemeanor arrests where a person has been convicted in a court and the conviction has been added to that person's criminal history record. It does not include arrests without a conviction, outstanding warrants, federal arrests or arrests from other states.

A search for a criminal record from another state requires you to correspond directly with the criminal record repository of that state. Also, some misdemeanors are not required to be reported to the criminal history record database and would not be found here.

Traffic Crash Purchasing System:

The Traffic Crash Purchasing System (TCPS) offers traffic crash reports, provided by all Michigan law enforcement agencies, for a $10.00 fee. Many insurance companies require clients, who have been involved in a traffic crash, to obtain a copy of the crash report for claims processing. TCPS provides a convenient way to obtain the crash report, without leaving home.

Credit card payment for the crash report is required prior to viewing or printing the Crash Report image. All charges incurred will be in US currency.

If you represent a business that would like to register for special billing arrangements for crash report purchases, please click the Contact Info / FAQ link for more information.
