Kroll, USIS, OPM investigators charged with falsifying background checks
04.14.09
Washington Post reported that employees for Office
of Personnel Management as well as subcontractors Kroll and USIS,
which handle the background inquiries for more than 100 federal
agencies, lied about interviews they never conducted and submitted
false statements.
In the race to the low price swamp, it has long been suspected that
some firms offer background checks at prices they cannot afford
without cutting corners ( "national criminal check"' for $4.95
anyone?). A shabby product is the logical result.
