How do I obtain a copy of a Cape Girardeau police report?
Requests for copies of reports may be made in person or by mail (faxed requests are not accepted). There is a charge of 10ยข per page plus research time for each report requested. Any request that is difficult to fulfill (retrieval from archives, etc.) will cost more depending on time spent by staff. This fee may be paid when you pick up the report. If you would rather have the report mailed or faxed to you, we will notify you of the cost and you can send payment. Make checks payable to the Cape Girardeau Police Department. We will mail or fax the report after receiving payment. There is a three-business-day processing period that begins after the request has been received by the Records Unit. Special requests may take longer to complete.
