County Criminal Records Search

Helping clients identify Applicants with a criminal past not only assists in maintaining a safe working environment, but further offers protection from the threat of negligent hiring lawsuits.

Mega Group Online searches for felony and misdemeanor criminal records in an Applicant’s counties of residence, and employment, using all known names and aliases. Mega Group Online accesses the most current information available through our nationwide network of record retrieval professionals who search felony and misdemeanor filings on-site within the nation’s more than 3,400 courthouses. We are consistently in communication with our researchers, ensuring up to the minute information on court closures and delays that can postpone our usual timely reporting.

 

Criminal filing results are communicated in an easy to read format and typically include the following:

  • Charges
  • Level of charges
  • Court location
  • Case number
  • Date of offense and filing date
  • Disposition date
  • Final disposition of charges
  • Any applicable sentencing or penalty

Mega Group Online adheres to the highest standards of accurate, legally reportable information, with each felony and misdemeanor record being thoroughly reviewed and researched before being reported to our clients.

 

Federal District Criminal Records search

The Federal District Criminal Records search directly accesses a district’s federal crime repository to identify federal criminal convictions including crimes of securities and tax violations, embezzlement, immigration, international or interstate drug crimes, mail fraud, civil rights violations and other federal statue violations. Offenses conducted on federal property are further prosecuted at the federal level.

As serious white collar crimes are revealed through a Federal District Criminal Records search, this search is recommended for all financial, executive and managerial positions.

Each state maintains at least one federal district, with larger states containing up to four separate districts. A Federal District Criminal Records search searches for federal records within a specific federal district court.

Federal district criminal records will provide the following:

Names of involved parties

The individual’s personal identifiers as they are recorded in the case file:

  • Charges
  • Docket number
  • Filing date
  • Jurisdiction
  • Disposition
  • Disposition dates

 

And if available:

  • Sentencing information
  • Judge and attorneys

 

National Criminal Records Search

This instant database search of offense records includes the collection of hundreds of millions of criminal records from 49 states and Washington, DC, Guam, and Puerto Rico. Areas searched include county courts, sex offender registries, State Administrative Offices of Courts, Department of Correction, traffic courts, Department of Public Safety, state record repositories, Probation Departments and national and international terrorism sources, America’s Most Wanted Fugitive List, DEA Diversion Control Program, European Union Terrorism Sanctions List, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Most Wanted, Interpol Most Wanted, Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS)  Most Wanted Fugitives, P.R.I.O.R.S., MIPT Terrorism Knowledge Base, United Nations Consolidated Sanctions List and many others. Please contact MGO for a complete source list.

When combined with a comprehensive on-site county criminal search, a national criminal database search broadens the search for criminal records to the national level, further supporting due diligence efforts and assisting employers in making informed and confident hiring decisions.

By searching offense records from around the country using an Applicant’s name, this search can uncover offenses in states and counties not identified in an Applicant’s Social Security Number trace or Credit History Report.

Further, when offense records are located through a national criminal database search, Mega Group Online audits and investigates the findings by conducting a country criminal record search in the county where the record has been located, ensuring both accuracy and proper reporting.

While it does extend the geographical area being searched for potential criminal offenses to the national level, this search should not replace comprehensive, on-site county criminal searches conducted in counties of Applicant’s residence and employment, but rather should act as a supplement to them.
