Because the courts issue orders for detention in the area, the best place to go to for an arrest warrant search in Chickasaw County, MS, would be the magistrate’s office. Active warrants released in connection with felonies are handled differently from bench warrants, which are generally released against a suspect on the run or when the court has been disobeyed.

These directives come into being when the police go to the local tribunal with authority to hear criminal matters. They have to approach the bench with an affidavit in hand. This sworn and signed writ is a document that is used to tell the judiciary about the criminal act that has occurred and the role of the accused in it.

So, the affidavit has details on the evidence that points to the culpability of the suspect. Often, witnesses are also brought down to the courthouse to ensure that the judge sees the case from the police’s point of view. Once the magistrate has been convinced that there is reasonable surety about the criminal act being a handiwork of the accused, the arrest warrant is sanctioned.

These orders then stay in the justice database as Chickasaw County outstanding warrants for as much time as required to make the arrests. To put it simply, these orders do not go out of effect. In fact, law enforcement agencies frequently involve themselves in information swapping, which helps to relay details on arrest records and active warrants from one area to another. Civilians can look for crime history through the agencies listed below:

  • The police: 210 Harrington St, Houston, Mississippi 38851
  • The judiciary: 236 W Main St, Okolona, MS 38860
