Criminal Records

Criminal records are official documents that detail an individual's criminal history. They include information about arrests, charges, convictions, and sentences. These records are maintained by law enforcement agencies and can be accessed by employers, courts, and the public, depending on local laws. Criminal records serve to inform decisions related to employment, licensing, and legal matters. Having a criminal record can impact various aspects of a person's life, including job prospects and personal relationships, as it provides insight into past behavior and legal transgressions.
