Background Records

This is the process of looking up official and commercial background records about a person. It's often performed when someone applies for a job that requires high security like a school or a bank. Traditionally this was done by the police but is now most often purchased as a service from a private firm. Information usually includes the following: past employment, credit worthiness, and criminal history. These background checks are important because they allow better informed and less-subjective evaluations to be made about a person.

Background checks are frequently conducted to confirm information found on an employment application or résumé. They may also be conducted as a way to further differentiate potential employees and pick the one the employer feels is best suited for the position. In the United States, the Brady Bill requires criminal checks for those wishing to purchase handguns from licensed firearms dealers. Restricted firearms (like machine guns), suppressors, explosives or large quantities of precursor chemicals, and concealed weapons permits also require thorough review of one's background records. Checks are also required for those working in positions with special security concerns, such as trucking, ports of entry, and airline transportation. Other laws exist to prevent those who do not pass a criminal background check from working in careers involving the elderly, disabled, or children.

To be honest I am always skeptical of these investigative sites on the net and I was duped a few times. Your site has real records and not a bunch of links to other sites.
