Oklahoma state laws determine that records revealing public activities like court documents, police arrest records, marriage licenses, traffic transgressions and more are open and available to the populace, largely due to the Oklahoma Open Records Act. These records contain titles, dates, details on events, sentences, processes and a lot more, and generally are all assumed public unless otherwise stated. Residents of Valliant have the ability to better realize their rights because of these laws, and the transparency offered by the release of these records helps to keep both criminals and regulators culpable for their actions, in turn leading to a more open and free society for everybody.
