Background
Background
Searching a name here ends up on PeopleFinders, which assembles the report and offers the subscription.
The site does publish an opt-out page of its own, and unlike any other site on this list it asks for a photograph of a state ID or a driver's licence, sent to them by email. Their own instructions tell you to obscure the photograph and the licence number first. Handing identity documents to a mugshot publisher is a real cost, and it buys removal from a shopfront rather than from the database behind it.
A record found here carries PeopleFinders's history, not this domain's. The PeopleFinders profile has the ownership, the complaint record and the litigation behind it.

FAQ
Q & A
How do I remove my information from FindMugshots.com?
This domain does run a removal of its own (A form that demands a photo ID), and it is worth finishing, but it clears the shopfront rather than the record. What you saw belongs to PeopleFinders. Our PeopleFinders removal guide is the process that clears it.
Is FindMugshots.com a data broker?
Not in the sense that matters. It holds no database and it is not on California's data-broker register, which is what a company with records to sell is required to join. It is a shopfront, and PeopleFinders is the shop.
Why does FindMugshots.com exist?
To capture searches and be paid for passing them on. The domain name does the work of looking authoritative, and the referral fee is the product.
