Part 1/3: The Truth About Arrest Records and How they are Stored
Criminal Record Privacy lawyer and researcher Bart Kaspero shows the path that a single arrest takes over time and how that information is kept in private databases. Many who have been arrested and never charged for the original offense are surprised to learn that dating apps, rental applications, and job interviews can reveal this past event. Using a simple visualization, you can see how the arrest data is stored and eventually used in ways people didn't expect.

- Q. In California how far back does a live screen background check go?
- A: For any license or credential given by an agency in CA, any livescan will pull up a person's entire criminal history as it is stored in the DOJ repository. However, agencies prefer to see cases that have been expunged or sealed for dozens of reasons. If the 2 misdemeanors and DUI you have in your past simply expired after probation ended, then I highly encourage you to petition the courts to clear the convictions so that your livescan appears the best way possible as you obtain your license.
- Q. A DV charge reported to the state of California yet no charges were filed and I never went to court. How do I fix it?
- A: We need more people like you! Thank you for wanting to work with B&G's Club! Here's the best that you can do to maximize your privacy and navigate the screening laws for volunteer work:
(1) Make sure that your charges WILL NOT be filed through he District Attorney's office.

(2) If the DA's office provides you with a status letter that they ... Read More
- Q. Should I pay to get my record cleaned? I read in CA, if not convicted, your arrest wont show in background check. True?
- A: Arrests that did not lead to formal charges being filed are routinely reported in background checks -- which result in privacy violations to many people who had a false sense of security. By the time someone is arrested and released from jail, an average of 7-15 different private organizations have already obtained the information about the arrest. Given your situation, you need to make sure that the case will not be filed (through the local District Attorney's office). Once you have confirmation, it is highly recommended that you seek a petition to seal the arrest from public view. On the other hand, if the case is filed and successfully dismissed (or diverted), you need to obtain a ... Read More
