Charges count even if they do not lead to a conviction, were settled before a conviction, or if he was found not guilty.
Examples that count: wire fraud, perjury, assault, arson, theft.
Examples that don't count: littering, possession of small amounts of marijuana.

Basically all executives will be charged when capitalism collapses, manifold will be long dead and it's executives will arrest too.
The entire tech industry is ad fraud so that wipes out a lot of companies, healthcare has constant deaths and banking just invests in those other industries. 90% of the oil in the world is fake which is another issue.
