When I was a juvenile, I was charged with assault 4 - a misdedeamer offense. I had it sealed a while back. I was told by the court that it is COMPLETELY sealed, and taken out of EVERY government database, and there was absolutely no way to open it. Now, I am asking this question because I have intentions of applying to be a police officer soon. When asked about criminal history, should I address my juvenile charge, even though it won't appear on the background search? (The court did inform me that it won't appear)
I'm not worried about the polygraph- they're easy to pass. So that aside, should I inform them? If so, what reason do I have to do so?
