What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? IN but offense is in KY
five years ago, I was investigated, but not prosecuted, for a non-violent offense in Kentucky. My wife, after many years of college and three degrees to her credit, is seeking employment in the public schools in Kentucky, Indiana and other states. One of the places to which she applied began calling her references almost immediately upon their receipt of her materials. We were delighted with this news, as were her references. Today, though, one of her references (a police officer), received a phone call from this school district and the caller began asking questions which were not of a standard potential employer-reference nature. The content of several questions were related to me in the form of, "Do you know if %%%%%'s husband is &&&&&& &&&&&&," and "Is there anything you can tell me about how %%%%% and &&&&&& &&&&&& met," and so forth. When the reference replied, "I don't know if you can legally ask these questions. I think all you are allowed to ask me is of her nature as an employee, which she was excellent."
So, what is to be done about this? Help?
