Kern County Busted Mugshots is privately owned and has no affiliation with a sheriff, jail, court, corrections department, or government body. It helps visitors locate Kern County and California custody and public-record resources. Neither this site nor its advertising partners is a private investigation firm or consumer reporting agency, and neither offers services for credit, employment, insurance, housing, tenant, or another FCRA-covered decision.
Nature of the Service
This private reference service stores no official record and has no tie to a government office. It cannot confirm custody, release a person, post bond, or file a request or court document for a visitor.
The pages identify Kern County custody, police, court, and corrections resources and may connect visitors with outside search tools.
Acceptable Use Rules
You agree to use the service lawfully and without harming people, systems, or other visitors. In particular, you must not:
- Use the service in violation of a law
- Stalk, harass, intimidate, or threaten another person
- Make employment, housing, lending, tenant, or insurance decisions from site content
- Seek access to an account, server, or feature without authorization
- Operate bots, scrapers, or other automated collection tools
- Interfere with performance or access for anyone else
No Consumer Reports
This site is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It supplies no background check, credit report, consumer report, or screening service, and neither do its advertising partners. You agree not to use site or linked-tool information for:
- Hiring, discipline, or termination
- Tenant selection or another housing decision
- Creditworthiness, lending, or insurance pricing
- A license, permit, or government-benefit eligibility decision
- Any other purpose governed by the FCRA
Third-Party Destinations
Links may lead to custody searches, police pages, court portals, corrections resources, legal-help material, news outlets, and outside search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control a destination's content, data practices, fees, terms, or availability, so review its policies before use.
No Warranties
The service is provided "as is" and "as available." No warranty is made regarding:
- Accuracy, completeness, or currency
- Continuous or uninterrupted access
- Freedom from errors, bugs, or security weaknesses
- The scope or completeness of a partner's results
Custody and public records can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement by KCSO, a court, or another government office.

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the site and its operators are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or other damages arising from access to, reliance on, or inability to use the service.

California Governing Law
California law governs these terms. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction in California.
Severability
If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining terms stay in effect. The affected provision will be adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
