Caregiver check failed to flag risk

For purposes of the blog, I’ll spare the tragic consequences behind yet another failure to do it right (click above to read).  Key points from the article linked above:

"At the time, Mitchell had three theft convictions in Los Angeles County on her record: in November 2001, October 2003 and March 2006"

"They did do a national criminal history report," Murphy said. "And it did come up clear for Kenya."

"…the faulty background check was due to a(sic) incomplete database."

The last quote suggests that a "complete" national database might exist.  DO NOT risk the safety of your loved ones, employees, customers, or business assets by falling into this trap.
