Federal Criminal Records

Federal charges typically encompass severe crimes such as drug violations, illegal sale of firearms, embezzlement, and pornographic exploitation of children. Federal crimes do not appear in statewide or county criminal searches. Federal criminal records are available nationally or by state and include pending cases as well as convictions. Federal criminal records are an essential component of an applicant's criminal history. Castle Branch recommends including a federal criminal record search in every employment screening package.

Castle Branch

In January of 1987, one of the worst railway disasters in history occurred on the East Coast. Three freight locomotives collided with a passenger train, leaving 16 passengers dead and 170 injured. An investigation by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) revealed that one of the freight crews smoked marijuana prior to the accident. Settlements were reached in civil action lawsuits against the companies and, after pleading guilty to manslaughter, the freight company's engineer was sentenced to five years in prison.
