I wouldn't be worried to enter again, just on a different spot with different cops.
well according to a few sites, you are wrong. this may be unique to the canada/us relation though.

We are receiving hundreds of calls and emails from people being questioned at the US border if they have ever been charged with a criminal offence.

The question is tricky because if you have been fingerprinted for a charge (for example domestic assault), then the Americans will see the charge even if it has been withdrawn, dismissed, stayed, absolute or conditional discharged.

Of course, if you have a criminal record, even if its really old, then the Americans can see that too.
