    Pennsylvania Justice Network

    Pennsylvania Justice Network

    The Pennsylvania Justice Network (JNET) serves as the Commonwealth's primary public safety and criminal justice information broker. JNET's integrated justice portal provides a unified online platform for authorized users to access crucial public safety and criminal justice information from various municipal, county, state, and federal agencies. This one-time data entry system enhances the effectiveness of participating agencies and significantly improves data accuracy across the Commonwealth's criminal justice system. Information entered into a records management system at the start of an investigation can now seamlessly follow the offender throughout their criminal justice journey. As offenders progress from initial contact to post-sentencing supervision, their information moves fluidly within the system, ensuring continuity and accuracy.  

    JNET's secure portal offers Pennsylvania's criminal justice professionals, as well as federal and state agencies and municipal police departments, the ability to conduct investigations securely in a web-based environment. With appropriate security credentials and authority, users can access information instantly, eliminating the delays associated with traditional paper-based and manual processes.
