A Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request was sent to the Boone County Sheriff's office regarding arrest records for the year 2024 on January 7, 2025.
The request, made by Chambana Sun, a media organization committed to comprehensive and accurate news coverage on local governmental affairs, seeks access to a list of all arrests from January 1, 2024 till December 31, 2024. The requested fields include the arrestee's name, arrest date, gender, race, date of birth and the crime committed.
As part of our ongoing commitment to holding public institutions accountable and providing transparency to the public, we at Chambana Sun believe that access to these public records is essential in fulfilling our professional responsibilities. Given our role in disseminating information to the public, we have also requested a fee waiver as a media professional.
We are awaiting a response from the Boone County Sheriff's office and will continue to keep our readers updated on this matter.
