City of Santa Maria, Santa Barbara County, CA Public Records

• Where can I find access to the reason someone was arrested?
  If this is a recent arrest, you can use a jail list directly from the county sheriff's web pages, and it is a free online search anyone can access. If you need an official arrest report, you can see how to obtain one from the arresting agency by checking their website. These are common requests, and in many cases, there is a standard protocol to follow, but it's routine for most departments. Local periodicals/papers often carry a page about recent arrests if there's no need for a detailed official report.
