Nature of the Service
The site is a private reference service for locating public resources relevant to Franklin County, Virginia. It does not store official records, confirm custody, release a person, or file documents with an agency. It may point to government sources and outside research tools, each with separate terms and policies.
Responsible Use
Use the service lawfully and respectfully. You agree not to harass, stalk, or threaten another person; seek unauthorized access; automate or scrape the service; interfere with its operation; or use information for an FCRA-covered decision.
FCRA Restriction
Franklin County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency. It does not provide consumer reports, credit reports, or background reports, and neither the site nor its advertising partners provides screening services. You may not use information from the site for employment decisions, tenant or housing decisions, credit eligibility, insurance pricing, licensing, permits, government-program eligibility, or another use covered by the FCRA.
Outside Links
Links may lead to sheriff, court, corrections, legal, or search-provider resources. Their content, privacy practices, availability, and terms are outside our control. A link is not an endorsement.
No Warranties
The service is provided “as is.” We do not promise accuracy, completeness, currency, uninterrupted availability, freedom from errors or security issues, or complete partner-search results. Custody information and public records can change without notice, and nothing here is an official statement by a public office.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for loss or damage arising from use of the service. You agree to defend and hold us harmless from claims, liabilities, and reasonable legal fees arising from your use or violation of these terms.

Updates and Access
We may revise these terms at any time, and a revised version applies when posted. Access may also be restricted or ended at any time, with or without notice.
Virginia Law and Severability
Virginia law governs these terms, and disputes must be brought in courts within Virginia. If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in force and the affected language is adjusted only as necessary.
