Site Provides Awareness Of Unsafe Service Workers

Reporting
Jack Fink
DALLAS (CBS 11 / TXA 21) ― Seven years ago this week, Lucia Bone of Double Oak and her family suffered a horrific tragedy.

Her sister, Sue Weaver, was raped and murdered by an air conditioning repairman. He then set her house in Orlando, Florida on fire. The man was a twice convicted sex offender.

Now Bone has started a non-profit organization and Web site: SueWeaverCause.org. Her goal is to have companies agree to perform extensive criminal background checks on their employees before sending them into homes.

To take part in the program, companies that send employees into homes would agree to pay for extensive criminal background checks on their employees. In exchange, their companies would be posted on the cause Web site.

Employees will have their social security number verified, their address traced back seven years, have their names checked against national and state sex offender registries, and go through comprehensive criminal searches.

Businesses interested in becoming cause certified can apply by clicking here.
