Is there anyway I can try to challenge or expunge my former Military criminal records? I got an honorable in August and a civillian now. I remember there was a CID investigation for probable cause about a year ago in 2019. And before i was chaptered out, the military police did an investigation but it was closed for me to be chaptered out.

if civilian LEO were not involved and you got an honorable discharge, odds are high that no one will ever know unless you apply for a security clearance. virtually impossible to challenge/expunge military criminal record that resulted in a chapter.

C.I.D. probably “Titled” you during their investigation. That means that they named you as a suspect on a Report of Investigation (ROI).

If you were titled, it will follow you for the rest of his life. From what I understand, you do not get removed from this database once in it, unless the ROI is closed with a finding of you not involved...So if you are considered a suspect even if they can not bring charges, you can remain titled.

So, anytime you apply for a government job, police, security, NICs check, etc, where they do a background check, this issue will come up.
