You would have to check your state's expungement law. Some states will not expunge certain crimes, and Kidnapping may be among them.

In addition - the question arises as to whether or not you were charged with the FEDERAL offense or a state statute. It may make all the difference in the world when you (or your attorney) wish to take action on it.
