As a US citizen, you can file an immigrant visa petition for your husband, but without knowing more about his background I can't provide advice or a guess on whether or not he would ever receive an immigrant visa.

H-1 B VISA STAMPING

Answered by attorney Alan Lee
Immigration lawyer at Alan Lee Arthur Lee, Attorneys at Law
In order for you to reenter the U. S. with the H-1B approval, you are required to obtain an H-1B visa from an American consulate or embassy unless you are a Canadian national. The H-1B visa contemplates dual intent in the sense that you can be issued such visa even if you have immigrant intent so long as the consular officer believes that you will leave the U. S. at the time that your status expires if you have not yet been granted your permanent residence. Your chances at interview for an H-1B visa would likely be good as long as the consular officer did not believe that you committed misrepresentation in obtaining your initial visa to come to the States. If the interview fails, you can contest the determination either with the consular officer’s superiors, the Department of State, or U.S.C.I.S. dependent upon the circumstances of your case. As long as you are in legal status, you are allowed to work in this country without the need for visa stamping. A visa stamp only indicates the periods of time under which you can travel in and out of the country. The time that you are allowed to stay while you are here is governed by U.S.C.I.S. and is indicated on your H-1B approval with the I-94 attached to it.

If you marry for love and not to "help", his criminal past will not affect you. But the question is if you are eligible.
