Once arrested you are entered into a national database. As you proceed through the court process this record is updated. It is accessible to anyone qualified to run a criminal history.

It is not expungable because you were convicted. Had you been aquitted or the charges dismissed the arrest would have been expungable. Your conviction follows you.
