Can you be convicted of a criminal offense and it not show on your record?
Perhaps. If the event occurred prior to your 18th birthday, juvenile records are customarily sealed to the public (unless the juvenile was bound over to adult court for prosecution). Also: Most states have provisions in their laws for the one-time expungement of certain criminally offenses. If your offense qualifies and you apply for the procedure this record, too, will be sealed to the public. HOWEVER: If your conviction was for a Federal Offense, there is no operable method to expunge a federal conviction. ALSO: Although these records become sealed to the general public, they are always researchable by the courts, law enforcement, and government agencies conducting background investigations.
