Oklahoma state laws dictate that records revealing municipal activities such as court documents, arrest records, marriage certificates, vehicular violations and more are open and available to the general public, largely due to the Oklahoma Open Records Act. These records contain titles, dates, specifications on events, sentences, proceedings and much more, and are also all assumed public unless otherwise stated. Nashs authorities and criminals are both held accountable because of the transparency given by this regulation, making Nash, and by extension the united states, a more free and open society.
