Child Endangerment- 8 years ago

Anonymous back to top |
Posted 10 months ago I applied to go to a nursing school- which requires a background check.... makes sense! Anyways 8 years ago in NY I was charged with an assualt. It was dropped and I plead guilty to child endangerment charges (as my children were home during the occurence)... I am sure this is going to disqualify me???? I am not on a child abuse registery or anything but is this going to make it difficult for me? |

| Posted 10 months ago my ex husband was abusive and I hit him back out of self defense to get him off of me.... that is where the assualt came from, but ended up being dropped and I just pled guilty to child endangerment instead.. |

| Posted 10 months ago Thank you. I am really hoping they let me explain. When they asked for all my addresses in the past 7 years I gave to them... so I wonder if they only go back 7 years? IDK |

| Posted 10 months ago No I did not. I had thought it was sealed as I have not ever had it come up at any job I have applied for in the past. The only reason I know it is not sealed is b/c I called the court house to get information on the charge etc. I am re-married and my husband actually asked me if it was going to cause a problem for me getting into the shcool, otherwise I wouldn't haave even given it any thought. |
