There are data bases that compile public records. Why not do the 'search' and see what is out there? Understand that there there are different depths to an inquiry.

For a while, I was concerned with a questionable arrest where the prosecuting authority chose not to proceed. The arrest was expunged. The history didn't disappear in smoke, and, no doubt there are tracks of that event somewhere in some basement archive. Yet, historically, it didn't happen.

As an agreeable soul, I listed the accusation (arrest) but could not provide court records regarding the disposition. Supposedly, it didn't happen. But, I did take the ride and was an overnight guest, a nice bail bondsman arranged my mid-morning exit, and the folks who were looking after my vehicle overnight returned it safe and sound. None of this was 'gratis' you understand.

If it truly didn't happen, then it was an expensive nightmare.

My suggestion is that there is a distinction with an accusation, (arrest), and a finding of Guilty. Why admit to something that, historically, didn't happen?

'luck to you.
