Online criminal record checks are a relatively new tool for bringing peace of mind in many areas of life. During the last 5 or so years, online criminal record checks have evolved into nearly instant in speed and are highly accurate given some simple search information. A first and last name, add a middle initial, maybe some current and prior address information, and we can conduct a fast and discrete criminal record check on virtually anyone. How are they used?
Consider the following (fictional) scenario. As a small business owner, you have worked and grown your business to the point of adding employees. As the owner, you have pretty much always been at your place of business whenever employees were present, and managed to handle your receipts on your own. But now for whatever reason, you will be called away from your normal routine for a few days. You have three equally qualified employees, but can you put your faith in one or any of them with your business revenue while you are away?
You have grown to know each of them in the past few months, or at least so you think. One of them is kind of a loner, and never really talks about his past, but is a tireless worker that never complains. The second seems to be quite a friend both at work and in your personal life as well, and has actually become quite good friends with even your family. And the third one seems amazingly gifted at dealing with the public and is quick with a smile and eager to please. But her story never seemed to add up when she talked about her past. What can you do? Cancel the trip? Close the store for a few days? Roll the dice and go with your instincts? As the owner, this business is your life. The answer could be just a few dollars and a few computer clicks away.
Today we can find in seconds what once took days or even weeks of mail, phone calls, and faxes. Also, today's data is far more complete and accurate as well, with the ability to drill down to state and local levels, or to cast a nationwide net in your criminal record research. So later at home you surf over to one of the websites offering online criminal record checks, and nervously enter the names of your three employees.
First you check the customer service star, and in a few seconds you find out why she seems to have three different stories for the same period in her life. All three of her stories date from serving time for check fraud that stretched over a period of years, and in a state she never mentioned. Next, feeling just a bit guilty about checking up on a friend, you type in the name of number two. Your jaw practically hits the desk as you confirm that there have been three arrests, albeit no convictions, for various complaints of sexual advances toward minors. As you look at your daughters' pictures on your desk, you wonder if you should even have any employees anymore, and contemplate how few times in the future this guy will be visiting your home. You check the loner just to make the task complete, and head up to bed.
The next morning seems like any other. At lunch-time, you call the loner into your office and close the door. As you level your eyes on the quiet, imposing man across from your desk, you take note of the scarring along one side of his face, and the distant look in his eye even as he stares back. You muster up some fortitude and decide it's now or never. "Tell me about three years ago." in as commanding a voice as possible. The loner's eyes become quickly clear and focused, with anger, shock, surprise? "you only asked about the last two years on the app', I didn't lie to you. That was another time, someone else." His eyes sink downward. "I'm not saying you did lie," you snap back, "but any man that takes on three gangsters defending some gas station attendant the same day he rotates out of the service, and then has the bum luck of being arrested for excessive force due to... training?" You pause, "Look, if you're going to be my store manager whenever I'm gone, I've got to know."
