More than 12,200 innocent people have been branded criminals by bungling police and Government officials, it has been revealed.
The incorrect records showing them to be paedophiles, violent thugs or other convicts were disclosed to schools, hospitals, nurseries and voluntary groups by the Criminal Records Bureau.
The extent of the misreporting is four times worse than officials had suggested.
Those wrongly accused by the CRB face having their careers blighted. They also have to go through an appeals process to clear their names.
By the time that has finished, they may have been stigmatised and their chance of obtaining a job or training post dashed - disclosures are sent to the potential employee and the applicant on the same day.
