Questions about an official Clarke County criminal record belong with the office that created or maintains it. The contacts below distinguish court files from Sheriff reports, state criminal histories, regional bookings, and police records. This private site can identify a channel, but it cannot receive a government filing or produce the requested record.

This Is Not a Government Office. This is a private reference resource. It cannot retrieve an official record, perform a government check, correct or clear an entry, or accept a court filing.

Need an Official Record?

Use the Clarke County custodian that matches the record:

  • Circuit felony files and appeals: Clarke Circuit Court criminal clerk, 102 N. Church St., Berryville, VA 22611; 540-955-5116; weekdays, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
  • Misdemeanors and felony preliminary matters: Clarke General District Court, 104 N. Church St., Berryville, VA 22611; 540-955-5128; weekdays, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
  • Sheriff reports and law-enforcement records: Office Manager Janine Rose, Clarke County Sheriff's Office, 100 N. Church St., Berryville, VA 22611; 540-955-5152; jrose@clarkecounty.gov.
  • Virginia criminal histories: Virginia State Police Civil and Applicant Records Exchange administers the SP-167 process through the Central Criminal Records Exchange.
  • Recent booking and custody: contact Northwestern Regional Adult Detention Center, which handles Clarke's local detention.
  • Berryville Police reports: Berryville Police Department, 101 Chalmers Court, Suite A; 540-955-3863; foiapolice@berryvilleva.gov.
  • Expungement or sealing filings: confirm the correct current form and filing route with the Circuit Court criminal clerk.

The Sheriff accepts a reasonably specific Virginia FOIA request by email, mail, fax, telephone, or in person. Court records use the court clerk's access process instead. For an overview of case-search channels before calling, review the Clarke County criminal court case records route.
