Personal question about college essays in general

<p>If you include very personal details/ stories that you have never told anyone else and could get someone in trouble legally...(lets put it that way) will college admission officers or the college have the right to release it, show anyone or use it as "evidence" to get people in trouble?</p>

<p>Im just wondering if the college essays that i write are confidential to only the admission officers reading it and that they can not be used in any other way except to determine my eligibility and such. </p>

<p>Thanks</p>
