BCI (State Database Check) Digital fingerprints are electronically transmitted to the Bureau of Criminal Investigation and Identification (BCI&I) for processing and forwarded to the designated recipient. Processing time typically ranges from 24 to 72 hours, depending on factors such as workload, the receiving agency's processing capacity, and the quality and completeness of the submission. Additional considerations, such as outstanding warrants linked to the individual, may also affect the timeline. Once processing is complete, BCI&I generates a response indicating whether a match exists within the state database. This response is securely transmitted to the requesting agency, often via a secure portal or email. It is important to note that a 'no match' response does not confirm the absence of a criminal record but simply reflects that no matching data was found in the Ohio BCI&I database.

Turnaround times vary based on factors such as workload and the complexity of the request, typically ranging from a few hours to several days. Upon completion, results are transmitted electronically to the requesting agency, commonly through a secure portal. A confirmation email is provided to indicate whether a match was found or if the search returned no results. In cases where a match is identified, the requesting agency receives pertinent details regarding the individual's criminal history, in compliance with applicable privacy laws and regulations. Depending on the nature of the match and the information provided, further investigation may be required to address specific findings.

Hired to handle service in Ohio. Did what they said they would when they said they would. Communicated when there were difficulties locating the people to be served. I felt like they actually cared about doing a good job, not just doing a job. Would definitely use them again.

My fiancee and i have used Patrick at Ohio Security & Investigations multiple times ( for servance on custody and divorces both in OH and PA ) and will continue to do so. Fast, thorough, and reasonably priced.

The Sheriff failed to serve my defendant twice, but Ohio Security & Investigations got it done the first day after I hired them! I would definitely work with them again in the future.

Gwendolyn Starda

Patrick, Brian and the whole team at Ohio security and investigation really came through for me. I was at a loss on how to handle a breakup and kept hearing about how my ex had been cheating and using me the entire time. I got the team started and within 2 weeks they had found a pattern of abusive manipulative behaviors from multiple ex girlfriends. Lying cheating and stealing were a game for him. This whole team took me under their wing and made sure I was safe as they planned and executed the retrieval of my items. I will be forever grateful for my life back.
