How to know if a cars check engine light has been tampered with?

I am in the market for a car, but three of the most recent cars that I have tried to buy have check engine lights. This is why I always show up to a dealership a day in advance of a schedule appointment just in case.

My question is if I buy it from a private party and/or dealer, how do I know that the person/salesperson didnt just disconnect the battery to temporarily remove the check engine light or use an OBD machine to reset the code?
