If you committed this as a youthful offender, it should have been sealed. However, serious crimes are not always given youthful offender status even if the perpetrator is under 17. I don't know if you have looked up your record, but if it was not sealed under the Youthful Offender statute, it will not be expunged at all. New York does not at the present allow for the expungement of criminal records as you may have noted that other states do.
