An expungement of the public record of drunken-driving convictions after 10 years does not prevent the Maryland Motor Vehicle Administration from retaining a "confidential" record of those convictions for licensing purposes, Maryland's top court said Monday. The Court of Appeals' decision upheld the MVA's denial, without a hearing, of Thomas P. Headen's application to renew his driver's license in 2006.
EXPUNGEMENT: Where a defendant was charged with two offenses in connection with the same conduct, and where the defendant was convicted of a lesser-included offense on one charge and acquitted of the other, under R.C. 2953.61, the defendant could not apply to have the records sealed pertaining to the acquittal until such time as the defendant could apply and have the records pertaining to the conviction expunged. The trial court erred in granting a defendants application to seal the records pertaining to an acquittal under R.C. 2953.52, where the conviction resulted from the same conduct as the acquittal, and where the defendant was not a first offender and could not apply to have a conviction expunged under R.C. 2953.32(A)(1).
The situation came to a head one weekday morning when [Darryl] came by the house. Words escalated into a terrible row between [Roselyn Taylor] and her son-in-law and then the situation really took a turn for the worse with Roselyn picking up a baseball bat when Darryl threateningly pushed her out of the way before menacingly confronting [Renee]. One thing led to another and Darryl's windshield was smashed with the baseball bat. Deciding it might not be such a wise idea to 'step to' Renee, Darryl hastily jumped into his car and furiously sped away, but not before calling some of his buddies, who just happened to be on the local police force. Imagine Roselyn's shock 10 years later when she applied for a job and learned that the aggravated assault charge was still showing up on background ...

Other travelers might have converted that much money to a cashier's check or wired it to a financial institution in Brownsville, but [Javier Gonzalez] saw no need. Traveling with him that day was a friend named Christopher Clifford, who also wore baggy shorts and a T-shirt. Originally from small-town Kentucky, he was just along for the ride. It was a clear day as they passed through San Antonio, then followed Interstate 37 toward Corpus Christi and took the U.S. 281 exit near Three Rivers. The road toward the border winds through the Nueces River bottom for a few miles with the Choke Canyon Reservoir nearby. "You know," Javier said later, "some days you're driving down that highway, and you think, 'It's nice down here. It's pretty. I might come back.'" But the passage into deeper South ...

SOCIETY identifies as crimes behavior that hurts people. The possibility of prosecution and a criminal record that can affect employment, credit, licenses, etc. can deter some people from breaking the law. This is obviously useful to society.
