How To Get Your Name Off a Danvers Patch Police Report

Danvers Patch reports on arrests and crime incidents in the city, and also understand that not everyone is convicted of the crimes that they are alleged to have committed. Others have agreed to pleas or have been found not guilty, served their time, and want to move on with their lives.

Part of that process is getting your name removed from the Patch posts.

The process is an easy one: After the sentence has been served or if you’ve been found not guilty, simply email a scan or jpg of your court paperwork showing the conclusion of the case to the Patch town name. For Danvers, email the paperwork to danvers@patch.com.

Court documents should show resolution of the case, along with dates and sentencing information. After that, we will edit or update the police log or if it’s a full crime story, remove it entirely.

It usually takes a couple of weeks for search engines caches to clear.

Also, please note that the information remains in the Patch archives and is accessible to editors if there are future problems. Patch is not responsible for other news outlets or websites that aggregate our content. You would need to content those webmasters directly and request removal.

Please refrain from requesting that a name or information be removed before the court process and sentencing has concluded as we will not do that. We treat everyone equally.
