I strongly advice you not to leave the US under such circumstances......some people do and are lucky to get back in with no problems. Your offense does not meet the exception and would need your immigration lawyer to review it and see if the court papers were well structured to address...

It would still be viewed by immigration law as a conviction. However, if the maximum jail time is not more than a year, she would qualify for the crime exception under immigration law. It is pretty much a one time exception for all practical purposes. So check and let me know the maximum...
