Questions about official Butler County criminal records belong with the government office that created or keeps the file. This private site cannot retrieve or change a record. The contacts below route court cases to the district-court clerk, local arrest and jail matters to the sheriff, and statewide history requests to Iowa DCI.

This Is Not a Government Office. We run a private reference site. We cannot pull criminal records, run official background checks, remove or correct a record, or accept expungement filings for anyone. For any of those, you need to reach the right government office directly.

Need an Official Record?

Use the record type to choose the proper Butler County or Iowa custodian:

  • Court case files: see criminal court case records, or contact the clerk of the court that heard the case
  • Criminal records and rap sheets: contact the Iowa Department of Public Safety, Division of Criminal Investigation, Records and Identification Unit
  • Arrest, booking, and jail records: call the Butler County Sheriff's Office
  • Official Iowa record checks: use the DCI Criminal History Record Check Information process
  • Police reports and incident records: contact the agency that wrote the report
  • Expungement: use Iowa Judicial Branch forms and file in the court that handled the case

The county does not advertise a separately named records division. Start with the Butler County Sheriff's Office, 428 Sixth Street, P.O. Box 325, Allison, IA 50602, at 319-346-6621. For a court file or certified disposition, call the Butler County Clerk of District Court at 319-242-3570 at the same courthouse complex. Confirm counter hours and copy arrangements before traveling.
