Many people have things in their past they are not proud of. Stuff happens when you're young but that is also what builds an adult into who they are. Live and learn and don't judge others.

Might I also add that there are some of us who have had to deal with a spouse (ex-spouse now) who lie to authorities and have you charged with serious felonies. And only after spending time in jail, money for bail, money for attorney, missed work, and losing my CHL and gun rights for a year and half while proving my innocence... was I able to finally get the case dismissed. *** And by dismissed, I mean no probation, no community service, no deferred adjudication, no pleading guilty or nolo, NOTHING. I had to go through all this for something I didn't do. And the kicker is.... the arrest is on my record for 3 years and my name is forever in a database of domestic violence offenders. Just because of an arrest.
So anyone who runs my record will now see that and I can guarantee a domestic violence arrest, even without being convicted, will often times disqualify me for certain things. That's pretty fair right?
Sorry, but the justice system is truly guilty until you prove your innocence.
