Under the ex post facto rule, you cannot be charged with a criminal offense if it was not a criminal offense at the time you committed it. By the same token, if you committed a criminal offense that has since been repealed (meaning this is no longer a criminal offense) you still are considered having a criminal record for that offense.

What is arrest and booking records?

A booking record is exactly what it sounds like - every individual taken into custody is logged/booked/recorded, so that among other things there is proof of the length of time the individual is detained, as there are constitutional limits depending on the circumstances. You can be detained and released without charge, which will be booked at the site of custody but will not show up anywhere else.An arrest record usually refers to an individual's criminal record, which shows every arrest that proceeded to a criminal charge and is accessible, sometimes required by potential employers or lenders. Even if found not guilty, the arrest record will be kept and shared unless expunged by the judge, which is not a common occurrence.
