MohnMatrix is a comprehensive public records intelligence platform built for Virginia. Unlike traditional background check sites that rely on outdated bulk data purchases, MohnMatrix queries Virginia court systems in real time — pulling live data from all 120 General District Courts and 31 Circuit Courts across the Commonwealth. Our AI engine analyzes court records, translates legal codes into plain language, and generates risk assessments that help you understand the full picture behind any individual's public record.
When you search a name on MohnMatrix, our system queries multiple Virginia public record sources simultaneously: the Virginia Courts Case Information System for criminal and civil court records, the Virginia State Police sex offender registry (maintained under Virginia Code § 9.1-900), the Virginia Criminal Information Network (VCIN) for active warrants, and local jail booking rosters published by Virginia's 69 local and regional jails. Results are returned in seconds and organized by category — criminal cases, civil suits, traffic violations, protective orders, and more.
Our AI engine then processes these raw records through several analysis layers. First, it translates Virginia charge codes (like "18.2-248") into plain-language descriptions ("Manufacture, sale, or distribution of a controlled substance — Felony"). Then it cross-references charges with dispositions to determine outcomes — distinguishing between convictions, dismissals, acquittals, and deferred dispositions. Finally, it generates a risk score from 0 to 100 based on the severity of offenses, recency of activity, pattern of behavior, and other factors derived from public records. Learn more in our FAQ.
MohnMatrix was purpose-built for Virginia's unique legal landscape. Virginia is one of only a few states where reckless driving (§ 46.2-852) is a Class 1 misdemeanor — a criminal offense that appears on background checks and carries up to 12 months in jail and a $2,500 fine. Virginia also has 38 independent cities that operate their own court systems separately from their surrounding counties — a structure found nowhere else in the United States. Our platform understands these quirks and accounts for them in search results and risk assessments.
Virginia's criminal code classifies felonies into six classes (Class 1 through Class 6) and misdemeanors into four classes (Class 1 through Class 4). Class 1 felonies carry a potential sentence of life imprisonment or the death penalty (for capital murder under § 18.2-31), while Class 6 felonies carry 1-5 years in prison. MohnMatrix displays the offense class alongside each charge, helping users understand the severity without needing a law degree.

MohnMatrix serves a wide range of users with different public records needs. Individuals use our platform for dating safety checks — running a quick background check before meeting someone from a dating app. Parents use it to check on their children's coaches, tutors, and other adults in their lives. Landlords use it for tenant screening (in compliance with the Fair Housing Act and Virginia Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, § 55.1-1200). Small business owners use it for pre-employment screening of potential hires.
Beyond individual searches, MohnMatrix offers specialized tools for ongoing monitoring. Court Monitoring tracks active cases and sends alerts when new hearing dates are scheduled, dispositions are entered, or cases are continued. Community Eye maps recent arrests and registered sex offenders in your neighborhood. The Bail Fund automates the process of pooling family contributions when a loved one is arrested. And Inmate Services provides affordable communication options — phone calls, letters, books, and commissary deposits — for families of incarcerated individuals. Need a bail bondsman?
