If you have been a victim of a criminal offense, you should contact the nearest local law enforcement agency to conduct the investigation and file the appropriate criminal charges through the District Attorney's Office.
Prisons house people who are convicted of crimes. They are incarcerated. And, as incarcerated people, they are officially known as inmates, casually referred to as prisoners. Still, some think of themselves as convicts (a very politically loaded term in the prison context).
In United States practice, conviction means a finding of guilt (i.e., a jury verdict or finding of fact by the judge) and imposition of sentence.
Being charged with a crime does not necessarily mean that you have been found guilty or convicted of the offense; it simply means that there is enough evidence for the government to pursue legal action against you.
Being charged signifies the initiation of legal proceedings based on allegations of criminal behavior while being convicted indicates that the legal process has concluded with a determination of guilt.
Misdemeanor arrests should be sealed after 1 year if there are no charges, and felony arrests should be sealed after 3 years if there are no charges. Cases that get dismissed should be cleared immediately. Convictions of cases where you are granted probation should be cleared once the case closes.
