A federal indictment does not simply go away; it remains part of the public record unless it is dismissed or the charges are resolved through acquittal or plea deal. If a defendant is acquitted or the case is dropped, the indictment is effectively nullified, but the record still exists. In some cases, individuals may seek to have their indictment expunged, but this process can be complex and is not guaranteed. Overall, an indictment carries long-term legal implications unless formally addressed.
