I have been looking for work for several months and have applied to a multitude of companies. One company sent a letter to me last week indicating they did not hire me because they contracted a background investigating company to check out my record. This investigation company told my prospective employer that I pleaded guilty to 1st degree murder and armed robbery in a certain county in Florida. This is absolutely untrue. I did not live in Florida at the time of this case, which was 13 years ago. I also have not had so much as a parking ticket on my record for almost 20 years. I would like to know if legal action should be taken against the investigation company or against the Florida county, or both, and what exactly they should be sued for.
