Please be pretty clear.
I said "the definition of when a crime is comitted is pretty clear". It's not at the time of conviction, it's at the time when the act adjudged to be criminal occurred.

Or are you confusing when a crime has been comitted with if a crime has been comitted? The if question is settled by the operation of the legal system
