For Kelly Ma C.O.R.I Reform Info

Kelly sent me a private message asking about C.O.R.I so courtesy of Criminal Defense Attorney and long time fried Russell Matson I think the information below may be helpful. This CORI Reform info is from his web site http://www.mymassachusettsdefenselawyer.com for future reference.

Thx M

CORI stands for Criminal Offender Record Information. It is the listing of criminal convictions, arrests, and open criminal cases.

In 2010, Massachusetts passed a law to restrict access to some CORI information, in an effort to help people with criminal charges in their past from being discriminated against. In general, access to records of most misdemeanor criminal charges will be restricted after 5 years or a clean record, and 10 years in the case of felony charges.

As of November 4, 2010

Employers in Massachusetts will no longer be able to ask about convictions on “initial” job applications.

May 4, 2012

Standard CORI access for employers and landlords. Employers and landlords will have standard access to CORI via the Internet, for a fee, for the purpose of screening current and prospective employees, volunteers, and tenants. The standard access CORI report will contain the following information:

Convictions:

•All murder, manslaughter, and sex offense convictions.
•Any felony convictions that occurred within the last 10 years or for which the applicant was incarcerated within the last 10 years; and
•Any misdemeanor convictions that occurred within the last 5 years or for which the applicant was incarcerated within the last 5 years.
•CWOFs are NOT convictions for purposes of this law. In other words, if a person’s case was continued without a finding for a specific period of time and that time period has passed, the CWOF will not appear on the CORI.
o Note: If any criminal conviction qualifies to be included on the CORI report under the above rules, then all prior convictions will appear on the CORI report as well, regardless of when they occurred.

Open cases:

o Any criminal charges pending as of the date of the request, including open cases that have been continued without a finding.

Sealed records will never appear on a CORI report, and the report will not show that a sealed record exists.

Employers who make hiring decisions based on official CORI reports within 90 days of receiving the reports shall be held harmless in negligent hiring lawsuits that allege additional criminal background checks should have been conducted.

In addition, the new law also includes the following provisions:

•Employers that decide not to hire applicants or take adverse actions based on criminal histories in CORI reports must first give applicants copies of the reports.
•Employers conducting five (5) or more criminal background checks per year must maintain a written criminal offender record information policy.
•Employers are prohibited from maintaining CORI records of former employees or unsuccessful job applicants for more than seven years from the last date of employment or from the date of the decision not to hire the job applicant.
Employers who continue to ask questions on initial written applications about felony or misdemeanor convictions after that date may be subject to liability under the new law, experts warn. The other provisions described regarding the new law do not take effect until February 6, 2012.

Answer To Jim's Question

Hi Jim,

I have investigated for many clients who are fighting for custody. The first thing I trained myself is to is not judge and never to get emotionally involved. It is also my job to remain loyal to the paying client, perform the task at hand, and to leave it up to the eyes of the probate and family court to decide fate.

This being said, gaining custody is a very hard task and often even if the facts are in place, I have seen judges not act in the right way.I once caught someone smoking crack and the judge didn't do shit. Go figure, lol...

Answer to Jim L Question

Jim L as we will call him is a Guardian Angel and is to be commended for his years of service to all of us. The Angels are just that and I'm sure from working the streets he has seen a great deal of illegal activity on behalf of the criminals and the good guys. How can it not jade you.... Jim also was curious about cops turning the other cheek. I think in the past they have done it more but in my opinion it may have had a lot to do with residency requirement and picking and choosing what bees next they wanted to bust open. Thankfully it has changed in the City of Brockton where after 7 years they can move out. Do cops also solicit bribes in exchange for not reporting organized drugs, or prostitution, or other illegal activities. I'm sure they do but all walks of life have bad apples. I have never seen this first hand but what I can say is that with over 20 years of working the streets as a Defence Investigator I have heard many stories about how the cops like to kick in doors and scare good people. Personally I have a reputation of being dirty and a borderline criminal while trying to extract information myself, but I walk the line, and never kick in doors or make threats. I wear this as a badge of honor !!! The cops and District Attorney's office they have every resource none to man and they have the power or think they have the power to threaten to take kids away etc etc etc ....in order to get a witness to flip. But this aside we should be lucky becuase we have the greatest legal system on the planet.

Bill Cunningham Show

Hello,

I just returned from a trip into NY to meet with the producers of the Bill Cunningham show nationally syndicated TV talk show premeiring in Sept. It was pretty surreal to see the set which is the old Mauri Povich set..... and just to see the underbelly of the operation. I will be signing contracts to become the shows #01 DICK which means I will be on air to talk about investigations they send me on or to offer up expert advice. I am hoping with all the exposure that you the people will start reading my blog and most importantly " Ask the Dick" any questions you may have.

Thx

Mark
