For Mableton booking records that are not in the online system, you can file an open records request. Under O.C.G.A. § 50-18-70, booking records are public documents. The Cobb County Police or the Sheriff's Office must respond within three business days per O.C.G.A. § 50-18-71. The first 15 minutes of search time cost nothing. After that, fees kick in based on staff time. You can submit your request by phone, mail, or in person at the Cobb County Police Mableton Precinct or the sheriff's main office in Marietta.

Mableton 24 Hour Booking Photo Rules

Photos taken at booking are part of the arrest record. But Georgia puts limits on how they can be shared. O.C.G.A. § 35-1-18 stops law enforcement from posting booking photos online.

The Cobb County Sheriff enforces this rule for all bookings at the detention center.

If a booking photo from a Mableton arrest shows up on a third-party mugshot site, you have options. O.C.G.A. § 10-1-393.5 says those sites must take down your photo free of charge within 30 days of getting a written request. Include your name, date of birth, arrest date, and the fact that Cobb County was the booking agency. The Georgia Department of Law handles complaints if the site refuses to comply.

Criminal Background Checks for Mableton

A single booking record from Mableton shows one arrest. For a full criminal history, you need to go through the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.

Under O.C.G.A. § 35-3-34, you can request your own record or someone else's with their written consent. Felony convictions are public without consent.
