TransUnions Smart Move

I'm screening a tenant and his TransUnion criminal history is clean. When I Google his name, I found a history of domestic violence where he struck his wife. This occurred in 2006 and I am 100% certain it is the same person. I'm surprised TransUnion didn't pick up on this - do they neglect violations after a certain time?

I focus on rental history and prior eviction. There are rarely perfect persons wanting to rent.
