Terms & Conditions

These Terms and Conditions govern use of Washington County Busted Mugshots. By browsing or using this site, you agree to them. If you do not accept these terms, please do not use the site or its linked search tools.

This is a privately owned Washington County, Tennessee reference site with no affiliation to a government body, sheriff, jail, or corrections department. Neither this site nor its advertising partners offers credit, employment, insurance, tenant-screening, or other FCRA-covered services. We are not a private investigation firm or a consumer reporting agency, and the site only helps visitors locate inmate and jail-record resources.


Purpose of the Site

Washington County Busted Mugshots is a private guide, not a government service. It does not maintain official records, confirm custody, release a person, or file papers with an agency or court.

The site directs visitors toward Washington County inmate and jail-record resources and selected third-party research tools. It may explain official paths such as the Tennessee Public Records Act, Tenn. Code Ann. § 10-7-503, but it cannot submit or decide a public-records request for a visitor.

  • Use the site only in ways permitted by law.
  • Do not use information from the site to stalk, harass, threaten, or harm another person.
  • Do not use site information to make hiring, housing, lending, insurance, or similar screening decisions.
  • Do not attempt to access a system, account, or data without authorization.
  • Do not use bots, scrapers, or other automated means to collect or copy site content.
  • Do not interfere with the site's operation or another visitor's access to it.

No Consumer Reports

Washington County Busted Mugshots is not a consumer reporting agency under the Fair Credit Reporting Act. It does not prepare background checks, credit reports, or consumer reports, and neither the site nor its advertising partners provides screening services.

  • making a hiring, firing, or promotion decision
  • tenant or housing screening
  • evaluating creditworthiness or setting insurance rates
  • deciding eligibility for licensing, permits, or government benefits
  • any other use governed by the FCRA
