Requesting Records
If you are requesting police records that are Public Records, please complete the Essex Police Records Request Form found below and send it to us.
Important notes to know when requesting reports include:
- Officer's reports (non-criminal), to include accidents, may not be completed for 30 days from the date of the incident.
- Accident reports which resulted in a fatality can take substantially longer, sometimes months, due to the amount of investigation required.
You can always contact us if you're not sure or have additional questions.
