If the offense occurred prior to your 18th birthday it should have automatically become hidden to the public when you turned 18. HOWEVER - you need to realize that although the public can't view it, law enforcement, the courts, and government agencies will still have access to it. You can submit a motion to your local Circuit Court requesting that your juvenile history be removed from the public record. This should have happened anyway, and should be a very quick, cut-and-dried, procedure.
