The simple fact is there are no nationwide criminal searches available, at least not to the general public. Search the internet and you will find thousands of companies offering nationwide background checks. I am here to tell you that it is simply not possible.
To understand criminal records we have to understand how they are kept. The FBI can access any criminal record they want. We, the general public, do not have access to this information. If we cant use the FBI's database how do we perform these searches?
We must perform these searches on a county by county basis. That's right. Most criminal records are kept at the county level. If I need to find out if my girlfriend has a criminal record I have to go to the county she lived in to access the file. If she lived in five different counties, I have to go to all five counties to access the records.
The good news is that most county records are available online. Most counties and states have criminal and civil records available. The trick is finding them. When searching for a county courthouse try to only visit sites that have a gov extension. You do not want to go to a dot com where you have to pay a fee.
The problem you are going to have is finding all past addresses so you can do a complete criminal search. You don't need a nationwide criminal search. You only need to search the areas where your subject lived. Once you have the addresses you have everything you need to complete your investigation.
