What is the name of your state? Arkansas
I was arrested for shoplifting in 2006, and since then I have that part of my record sealed (or expunged) in april or may of this year. I have gotten married and had a child since the arrest. I want to get a job but I am afraid the employer can access the information. I know any place that you have to take care of a child or senior has access to my record. And I only found this out after I was fired from a job where I was taking care of children. I really enjoy working with children and taking care of people. Nobody told me i would never get to have a job doing what I loved to do. I know I messed up.
What I want to know is how long will it be on my record?
Will I ever be able to work as a CNA or even a teacher??
Do I have to wait so many years before it doesn't matter anymore or will it be there forever?
p.s. I've already had this expunged (or sealed) off my record.
