Anderson County Arrest Records Access
Booking records in Anderson County are public under Tennessee law. The Tennessee Public Records Act, found at Tenn. Code Ann. § 10-7-503, gives anyone the right to inspect and copy government records. Arrest records and jail booking logs fall under this law.

The Anderson County Sheriff's Office at 101 South Main Street in Clinton handles records requests. You can ask in person or call 865-457-6255 to start a request.
