Law enforcement and prosecution both happen at the federal and state levels.
A federal crime is prosecuted under federal criminal law, as opposed to state and local laws where most crimes are prosecuted.
You will not find federal records in a County, Statewide or National criminal searches.
To receive a comprehensive report on an applicant’s entire criminal record, both state and federal records need to be conducted.
Some example of federal crimes are:
Interstate Crime
Organized Crime
Criminal Exploitation
Distribution of a Controlled Substance
Bank Fraud
Racketeering
Bank Robbery
Crimes Committed on Government Property
Embezzlement
