In other words, having your record sealed means that the record still exists, but will not show up in most public records and background checks.
Sealing a record makes it invisible to the public, but law enforcement still has access. Expungement is the actual destruction of criminal records. In Colorado, expungement only applies to an underage drinking and driving conviction or a juvenile criminal offense.
