This is definitely a good idea and will help someone who made a foolish mistake as a young adult. They are charged, pay for their crime according to law, and often times change the direction of their lives but with the charge remaining on their record it is like they have to pay for the rest of their lives. That is just wrong. The Bill provides that they have to have a clean record for 8 to 10 years in order to get the expungement and if they can stay out of trouble for that length000-017
300-320
of time they deserve an expungement. I hope and pray that this Bill passes, I have someone in my life who would benefit from the passing of this Bill.
