Andrew County Busted Mugshots Access Rules

Missouri's Sunshine Law, Chapter 610 RSMo, controls public access to arrest records in Andrew County. Open records include arrests where charges were filed within 30 days, convictions, and probation cases. Anyone can request these. You do not have to explain why you want them.

Some records are closed by law. Under Section 610.105, if charges are dismissed, the person is found not guilty, or the prosecutor drops the case, those records close.

The Attorney General's office has a guide that explains all of this in plain terms.

Fees are straightforward. Copies cost $0.10 per page. If your request takes more than 30 minutes of staff time, they can bill for the extra work. Most single-record requests cost very little. Andrew County agencies must respond within three business days of getting your written request.
