Birth Records Investigation Process
Summary
Detectives in North Carolina may investigate birth records if a childs existence is questioned, starting with local records and expanding if necessary. Confidentiality is maintained, and findings are not shared with complainants or their legal counsel. Unauthorized sharing of medical or birth records could violate HIPAA. Public statements about investigations could lead to defamation or obstruction of justice claims. If a wellness check reveals a child is not present, further investigation may occur. Legal advice is recommended for specific concerns.Full Conversation

Would they look everywhere for records of birth or just in the county they believe the child was born in?
Hi Hannah,
In South Carolina, detectives would typically start by searching for birth records in the county where they believe the child was born. If they don't find any records there, they might extend their search to neighboring counties or even statewide databases if necessary.

What if they don't know what state the child was born in
Hi Hannah,
If they don't know what state the child was born in, detectives would usually start by checking national databases and collaborating with agencies in multiple states to locate the birth records. This involves a broader search beyond just one state or county.

How long would it take for them to get those records?
Hi Hannah,
The time it takes to obtain birth records can vary depending on several factors:

- **Jurisdictional Cooperation:** Collaboration between different states or counties can add time.
- **Database Access:** Access to national databases can speed up the process but still might take weeks.
