View Full Version : Damn, son...
I'm keying a batch of criminal records from Washington state, and there's one dude in here that got charged with 28 counts of supplying liquor to minors. So many counts, that they had to split it into two cases, because the most counts you can have in a single case in WA is 20.
My question is, wouldn't it have just been easier to charge him with one felony count of "trying to f*ck a drunk high school girl"?

Don't knock Olympia. Absolutely hands down the most beautiful country in the US of A.
Way better than that shipping dock you call Anchorage. ;)

Well, if keying the criminal records of Washington state's best and brightest has taught me anything...driving without a license and beating your woman.

the trees are beautiful right now - changing all kinds of crazy colors.

but it's always funny to me how the deviant looking folks have the clean records and these really button-up'd types have the records...I guess they are over-compensating or something.

It's always fun to try and guess who actually thinks they can get the job they're applying for, and who's just trying to keep their damn probation officer off their back.
For instance, people with just minor traffic misdemeanors? Probably good, upstanding members of society who will be an asset to Sears or Circuit City. The guy that got charged with first degree murder? Probably not so much.

my personal fav (not really criminal, but kind of!) was this guy who was on unemployment and got a job w/ us, then didn't report his hours to the gov - then when the gov asked me - I of course ratted the guy out. OH MAN, what an uproar this caused with this guy - he had to pay it all back. AND he was running a non-incorporated computer-fix-it company on campus...so I would always see his fliers on the campus bill boards. ******.
Outstanding.
I have several favorites from my fairly brief tenure in background investigations. For example, I was keying a WA superior court case where a guy was charged with 1st degree murder...which they later amended to assault. Figure THAT one out. :D

I'm just a records entry monkey. Other, more highly-trained professionals (giggle, chortle, snort) pull the records and send them over to my group, where we dilligently enter them into the system so we can print sleek, shiny reports for our customers to let them know what kind of scum wants to work for them. :D

sounds like what I do. I run the b.c.'s (eh, data entry I mean...) and then when I get an alert I have to send it to HR to tell me whether or not it's a hire. Best part: I don't even get to know what it's all about. So when I get an alert and HR says "fine to hire"...I'm always thinking - REALLY? Let's hope this is a traffic violation, otherwise I better not **** off this employee - he could end up going postal.

no reason at all...I just always wonder what it's about. I had a guy once who applied and he gave a written statement about why he had a Background (so I knew from his application what it was about) - he was charged w/ trespassing into someone's spa while drunk. I thought it was funny and he got the okay to hire.
