You've got issues. No, unless you are found to be factually innocent and the judge orders your records sealed and destroyed, this will always exist at some level on your background. Whether it has to be disclosed depends on the reason you're asked about your record. With your professional license on the line, you have got to do anything in your power to avoid a conviction if at all possible. I'd strongly suggest sitting down with a local criminal defense attorney or two to discuss the situation. Make sure in your conversation you discuss licensing and the impact this case may have on it. You may want to also consult with an attorney that handles administrative/licensing issues to best prepare yourself for filling out your application and moving forward. This is crucial, as an incorrect answer and a failure to disclose something that is required to be disclosed can have a far worse effect than just disclosing in the first place.

The answer depends upon a number of factors which include the seriousness of the charges, the prior record of the accused, whether or not there is a stable home environment for the juvenile to reside in & the likelihood the accused will abide by the court's orders if released from juvenile detention prior to trail.

Should I take the plea bargain if I'm innocent?

You should have a good attorney review the case to help you decide. If you cannot afford to hire one, get a public defender. The attorney may be able to help you negotiate a better deal or even dismissal.
