Reading a Tooele Booking Report
A Tooele booking report is a factual record of the arrest and intake. It shows what happened at the time of booking, not what happened in court later. The report lists the charges at the time of arrest. Those charges may change as the case moves through the Third District Court in Tooele.
A booking report does not mean the person was guilty. Many people are booked and later have their charges reduced or dismissed. Court records show the final outcome. Booking reports show the starting point. Both types of records are public in Utah, but they tell different parts of the story.
If a person's charges are dismissed or they are found not guilty, they may apply for expungement through the BCI expungement process. Once granted, the booking report is sealed from public view.
