I think that once they are in the system they are there for good, but honestly, I'm not 100% sure.

Once you get pulled over & the police run your name & whatever else, the FBI keeps u on file permanently. So can the police.

You are in some vast database now. Forever is the answer to your question.
Better keep it clean because it will be very easy to catch you next time. Push a few buttons and whamo there is all the information they need.

the question should read .....

i assaulted a person and my hand print is on his /her face how long will that take and the bruises to disapear..? because i feel sorry for them....

there kept forever by the police helps them catch you quicker the next time you do somethink ..reduces the paper work so they can lock you up quicker....

should of thought about this question before you assaulted the person......

As for the DNA sample, the police may keep them as long as they want. For fingerprints, they are more than likely in the system worldwide now, so they will have them forever.
