How long does a felony remain on the convicted person's record?
Permanently. The exceptions are a pardon or expungement granted by the governor of the state in which the person received the felony conviction or the President if it is a federal conviction. Such acts are taken in relation to wrongful conviction. For example, the person being cleared in a retrial or by evidence such as DNA being presented that proves the person inoccent of the crime for which he or she was convicted.
Is everybody's DNA in the crime database?
No, everybody's DNA is not in the DNA database. CODIS (which is the U.S.A.'s DNA database) only contains DNA samples from individuals who have been convicted of certain crimes, individuals who have been arrested on felony charges, missing persons, and unidentified bodies. Different states have different rules for deciding who's DNA goes into the database. All fifty states take DNA samples from people convicted of major felonies, such as sexual assault and homicide. Forty-seven of the fifty states take DNA samples from everyone who has been convicted of a felony. Some states, such as California, take DNA from everyone who is arrested. Some states take DNA from everyone who has been convicted of a crime, even a misdemeanor crime.
