In the UK - yes as you were bound over. In 1983, if you had been found 'not guilty' they would have had to have been destroyed, but nowadays they remain on file even if you are acquitted - as does your DNA and photograph.
I'm a police officer, but I still think that this is a gross infringements of our human rights, and building up a DNA database by the back door....
And yes, I do read The Guardian.... |

Yea they'll be in a data base somewhere, but it shouldn't matter now! Unless you've recently broken the law? X Hope not |

YES! |
|
Val G
|
Yes. And every single crime that's committed they'll check your particular fingerprints with those left at the scene of the crime! AND that goes for crimes through INTERPOL! Boy, have you got to be a little angel for the rest of your life! |
|
Sorcha
|
Yeah they are probably in some sort of database. |
|
BigEasy
 |
Yes if you weren't a juvenile when you commited the offense |
|

Yep. Once we take the prints they go into a database and stay forever. |
|

 |
If you where convicted in a court of law your finger prints will remain on file forever. |
|

Yes, fingerprint records are NEVER destroyed. |

If you were arrested and in your booking the police fingerprinted you, yes, they are sent into the FBI data base and are on record forever |

I'd guess the local police still have a copy.
Likewise the state police, the FBI, and Homeland Security. |

Yes. They would have been kept on file and then loaded into the national database once it was set up. They don't get rid of those things. You've seen how much evidence they keep for years and years. |

|
Once you are printed it's in the database forever. |

Yes they will do. Once you are fingerprinted the information is entered into the national crimes database.
But why worry if you haven't done anything? |
