Oklahoma state guidelines dictate that records documenting municipal activities like court documents, police arrest records, marriage certificates, traffic transgressions and more are open and accessible to the general public, largely because of the Oklahoma Open Records Act. All relevant information about the numerous happenings of law enforcement, city and county courts, and local government are incorporated into these records, and generally are presumed public unless officially redacted. Greenfields law enforcement and criminals are both held accountable thanks to the transparency given by this legislation, making Greenfield, and by extension the united states, a more free and open culture.
