Last year, MVLS’ Matthew Stubenberg found that Baltimore City had petitioned to clear their records in less than a third of eligible cases — leaving thousands at risk of carrying a criminal rap sheet that could stand in the way of employment, housing, student loans or a professional license. He decided to do something about it and created his own website, www.MDExpungement.com.

The Pew Charitable Trust highlighted his work in their article, Got a Criminal Record?  It’s Getting Easier, Less Expensive to Expunge It.
