Hi everyone,
Well I'll get straight to the point.
When I was 13 years old, I was arrested and charged with larceny in the 6th degree. I had to do 20 hours of community service and my record is either non existent or expunged.
Right now, I'm in a position of potentially joining the Navy and this previous charge is "psyching me out."
Currently, I work at a Nuclear Power Plant as an engineer and filled out the paperwork saying I was never arrested, etc.
Now, will I still have to disclose this to the Navy? I have read that you are supposed too or don't have too, but I've been told consistently that I shouldn't since I was 13 and it was expunged/non existent. I have yet talk to the recruiter because I am not able to get a hold of them.
If I do, will this disqualify me from jobs because the offense is of "moral turpitude?"
Any information regarding this is greatly appreciated!
