I am a lawyer in CT and practice in this area of the law. You can apply to have your record expunged. This is a formal application that is made to the parole board. The review the application and determine whether you deserve it or not. I suggest that you obtain a lawyer before you send in the application as you want it to be written well and have what good reasons for the application to be granted. A lawyer with experience will be able to help you.
