If you're worried about a criminal history, do a background check.

This heuristic would miss people who lie about "consulting" during the time they were in jail and would incorrectly catch someone who was falsely accused and then exonerated.

Not all "jail time", but yes, many convictions would preclude candidates from employment at my current company... and most of the previous ones.
