Comment on The University of Texas at Austin has 'delisted' this video so that it's harder to find.

Also since a lot of arrest records are easily found online, for free, with no login (some states more than others), employers are bound to find it even if it’s unethical (or illegal) to search that way.

Wow. That is insane that an arrest record is searchable as there are so many false arrests. Feels all kinds of wrong. The USA really surprises me.

Agreed
I’ve seen arrest (booking) records going back 20 years or more online - on the police department’s own website. Mostly in Florida because their laws are way more lax than other states.
