Will BI's report undetected crimes?

[okapi]

I'm planning to 'fess up to anything and everything I can remember. So my question is, are BI's, since they are LE, obligated to report anything that has gone unpunished? I have never committed a violent crime or stolen anything. There is one thing I did 10 years ago that I consider serious, but I asked one person I know in LE and she didn't think it was that big of a deal, everyone else that I ask has a "So what?" attitude about it, but I don't know..... I am wondering what the BI's perception will be.

What excatly did you do?.

Does it matter what I did? 94 views and no other responses? No one can even give me a generic "yes we report" or "no we don't report" response?

Will it be reported to the people who make a hiring decision? Yes.

Will it be referred to a prosecutor for criminal prosecution? Depends on what you did, and when. So yes, it does matter what you did.

Yes it does matter what you did. Details sunshine, we need details.

Edit: SA13 beat me by about 30 seconds.

That you lied. It will be reported. It will be found out.

You will go to PRISON.

lol, the prison part was a joke... or is it?

Some agencies will polygraph you, based on your application. I saw a questionaire that asked questions about crimes that weren't detected or for which you were not punished.
Bottom line; if it wasn't serious, and you are honest about it, you should be o.k.

Well said, Everyone has some crimes that they may have forgot about, ****ing in public for example, but will a BI really care about that? doubt it.

You ought to find out the statute of limitations in your jurisidction for what you did. Despite the fact that someone told you it wasn't serious, if the SOL is more than ten years you can bet it's pretty darn serious.

If you don't already know, murder is the one crime without a SOL. So unless you did that, there's a good chance that what you did cannot be prosecuted. Do yourself a favor and find out.
