(17,802 posts)The background check process only goes back a set number of years depending on the job or clearance you are being considered for.
It always stops at age 18. Anything before that isn't looked at beyond criminal record checks and school history.
For example, a publiuc trust clearance will only look at your past 5 years of employment. But ts/sci will look back 20. If you are in the service and only 22, they will stop at age 18 for a lot of checks. But they will look at criminal and driving records if they are in the system.
As a rule, the younger you are, the quicker the process goes.
Besides, Judge wasn't the one being checked. He was merely a friend of the subject. If rapie mcrape face didn't list him in his disclosure forms, they wouldn't even speak with him.
