The decision to expand the preemployment screening process came after it was revealed a working guard was wanted in the Czech Republic for drug and fraud charges.    Rather than wait, like some other states and municipalities for more embarrassing situations to arise, regarding employment hires and background checks, the Nebraska DOC decided to move quickly to help assure no mistakes like this would be made in the future.
