What if you weren't fingerprinted?

If you were fingerprinted it will follow you to every single law enforcement agency you ever apply. I learned this the hard way. If you lie about applying to another agency and you were fingerprinted by that agency it will come up during a backround investigation. Every time you are finger printed by a law enforcement agency (criminal or employment) it comes up on fingerprint check. Your prints come back from a national fingerprint check as printed for employment and the name of the agency that printed you. It stays with you forever. There is no way around it. This goes for every single law enforcement agency in the U.S.

I could be going out on a limb here, so don't quote this as gospel, but don't you think a police department background investigator could simply ask the people conducting the fingerprint check to please list all other agencies that have requested a fingerprint check on you in the past, say 36 months?  If the list comes back with the LAPD (for example) requesting a fingerprint check on you in the last year, I'd venture to say that you'd have some explaining to do.  

If you are caught in a boldfaced lie such as this, you will be shown the door, no ifs, ands, or buts.

I think your only option is to be completely honest with your background investigator about your drug use, and your past application.

Good luck to you.

lets say someone applies with an agency and is 100% truthful in regards to there drug history, they get DQ'ed. While going through the process they were finger printed.

3 months down the road you apply with another agency and do not tell them anything about applying with another agency, do they have a system they can look in to see what other agencies you have applied with?
