Sexual assault conviction[edit]

Why is this included under academic activities? It really seems unrelated to his work as an academic, other than the fact that the girl that he assaulted was a student. Why isn't this a separate section? Theycallmebruce (talk) 21:17, 17 March 2011 (UTC)TheyCallMeBruce[reply]

Well, he assaulted a student, so at the risk of being flip, it was an academic activity. More important, some editors felt that by putting it in its own section, it gave the conviction too much prominence.--Bbb23 (talk) 21:32, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I eliminated the section header but don't feel strongly about it--it can be restored if that's the consensus. Jonathanwallace (talk) 21:48, 17 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Too much prominence for a sexual assault conviction? Given the fact that it has effectively ended his career in the US, it seems like a pretty significant event. Beyond that, trying to say that molesting a student is an "academic activity" is disgusting. The conviction should have its own header. Theycallmebruce (talk) 19:35, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Let's wait a day or two to see if anyone objects. If no one else contributes, I'll move the material to its own section header. Like Jonathan, I don't feel strongly about it one way or the other.--Bbb23 (talk) 19:52, 19 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It's been a while, and I see no objections, so I re-added the section head. Theycallmebruce (talk) 03:23, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

--There was a discussion about this of the BOLP noticeboard and consensus was that it ws undue weight due to violation of BOLP policy. Refer to BOLP Noticeboard. LiteraryEditor (talk) 13:18, 1 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sexual assault overturned and Sealed[edit]

Hello, I would like to point out that upon my research none of these citations existed anymore and also I found that his conviction has been overturned and the judge gave pardon and stated that it never happened. I believe this is equivalent of an expungement, so legally it should not be mentioned at all. Here you can see the relevant docs for the pardon https://egov.ct.gov/PMC/Event/Details/12010 . Goodpacific (talk) 18:26, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I know Dr. Salinas and am quite familiar with his case, and this is correct. The order from the Board of Pardons actually states that he is “legally able to truthfully state you have never been arrested or convicted of a crime in the state of Connecticut”. All relevant parties are required to erase and expunge all records. Brightdaily (talk) 18:50, 22 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I concur. He has received an absolute pardon by the state and the conviction has been reversed. The whole purpose of the expunge is to wipe the slate clean. AZM-GH (talk) 19:27, 27 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am the subject of the article and indeed, all charges and convictions were overturned and the record was expunged (not sealed) on a hearing by a panel on August 4, 2021. I was issued an judicial certificate that specifically states that it "forever acquits, release and discharge said person" from all the charges, and a letter saying "Congratulations, as you are now legally able to truthfully state you have never been arrested or convicted of a crime in the state of Connecticut." Furthermore, Conn. Gen. Stat. § 54-142a states that “(2) When a criminal case is disposed of, qualified electronic records or portions of qualified electronic records released to the public that reference a charge that would otherwise be entitled to erasure under this section shall be erased in accordance with the provisions of this section.” So I appreciate any support to adhering to the letter and spirit of the statute, as well as the wikipedia BLP Policy to have this information removed. Thank you. Msalinasphd (talk) 16:32, 26 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
