depends on The severity of the crime, Misdemeanors are usually OK... but you will have to proof that you are a person of good moral character... USCIS looks 5 years back in your record.. so You will have to wait until 5 years passes from the date of your arrest ... or whatever you did ...
But consult with an attorney for an accurate answer ....

No, not unless they are born in the United Kingdom. However, someone born after 1961 to a British mother, and who is a citizen of a Commonwealth country, can apply for citizenship, with a few exceptions. There are restrictions based on criminal record, etc, but in most cases, citizenship can be obtained. This is due to a change made in 2006. Prior to 2006, only children born after 1983 could apply for citizenship through their mothers.

Where can you apply for dual citizenship?
Dual Citizenship means you are a citizen of two countries at the same time. Not all countries allow this. If you acquire a new citizenship then you often have to give up the old one. The rules for acquiring citizenship vary greatly and are often complicated. They usually require you to be a legal resident of that country for a number of years, to speak the language, not to have a criminal record, and other restrictions. If you want to acquire a second citizenship, you will have to research how to become a citizen of that specific country.
