# Will an arrest at Gillette show up on my record back home?

Yes. Massachusetts shares criminal record information with most states through the Interstate Compact. An arrest in Massachusetts will appear on background checks run in your home state. A conviction will follow you. Even an arrest without a conviction often shows up on certain types of background checks.
