Fingerprinting does not mean you already had been fingerprinted by
the law enforcement but to enable your state record-keeping
department run a full-fledging investigation through different
resources, like FBI. Like in my state, all criminal records were
kept by state highway patrol department. If some people wants to
run this type of check, he has to submit his fingerprint and pay a
little higher fee than regular check. It should release all
records filed in that department both open and closed. Check your
state's law to see how to get it done. Also you can go to your
local police department which put your under arrest and ask for an
arrest report, case investigative report and background check
report. To get these reports, you should provide your case number,
ID and pay certain fee.
