This is a privately owned reference service with no connection to Shelby County, a sheriff, jail, court, corrections department, or any other government body. Neither the site nor its advertising partners offers credit, employment, insurance, tenant-screening, or other services covered by the Fair Credit Reporting Act. The site helps visitors locate Shelby County and Indiana jail-record resources. It is not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency.
Purpose and Ownership
Shelby County Busted Mugshots is a private reference site. It does not store official government records, confirm whether someone is in custody, arrange a release, submit court filings, or act for an agency.
Links point visitors toward resources such as the Shelby County Jail roster, the Shelby County Sheriff's Department, Indiana Department of Correction tools, and third-party research services. Those destinations remain separate from this site.

- Stalk, threaten, harass, or harm another person
- Use information for hiring, housing, lending, or insurance decisions
- Attempt access to systems or accounts without permission
- Operate bots, crawlers, or scrapers against the site
- Interfere with service for another visitor
No Consumer Reports

Independent Websites and Services
Links may lead to sheriff and jail resources, booking systems, corrections agencies, government portals, legal-aid information, news sources, and outside search services. A link is not an endorsement. We do not control a destination's content, privacy practices, terms, data quality, or availability. Review the destination's policies before using it.
Service Provided As Is
The site and its content are provided "as is" without express or implied warranties. We do not guarantee:
- That information is accurate, complete, or current
- Continuous or uninterrupted access
- Freedom from errors, defects, or security flaws
- Complete or useful results from a partner search
Custody status and public files can change quickly. Nothing published here is an official statement by the Shelby County Sheriff's Department, Shelby County Jail, Indiana Department of Correction, or another government agency.
Limits on Liability
To the fullest extent allowed by law, Shelby County Busted Mugshots and its owners, operators, and content partners are not liable for direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, or other damages arising from access to, reliance on, or inability to use the site.
Your Duty to Indemnify
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold the site, its owners, and its partners harmless from claims, losses, costs, and reasonable legal fees caused by your use of the service or your breach of these terms.
Ownership of Site Materials
Unless a source is identified otherwise, the text, graphics, logos, and code belong to Shelby County Busted Mugshots or its content partners. You may not copy, distribute, republish, or modify those materials without written permission.
Revisions to These Terms
We may change these terms at any time. A revised version becomes effective when it is posted on this page.
Ending or Restricting Access
We may suspend, limit, or block access at any time, for any reason, and without advance notice.
Indiana Law Applies
These terms are governed by Indiana law. Any dispute must be filed in a court with proper jurisdiction within Indiana. Where access to an official record is at issue, Indiana's Access to Public Records Act, IC 5-14-3, governs the agency record rather than these private-site terms.
If One Term Is Invalid
If a court finds one provision invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect. The affected provision will be limited or adjusted only as much as needed to make it enforceable.
