What to do if charges of sex abuse and sodomy come up in my background check and while they were never founded it looks atrocious?
I was arrested but never tried. To be falsely accused of something like this is terrible and I have asked for a hearing to remove this from my records. What kind of documentation do I need to bring to court? I’ve never done this before and I’m scared.
