The correct pronunciation of the noun "convict" when referring to a jailed criminal is **con-vict** (pronounced with the stress on the first syllable). The phonetic spelling would be /ˈkɒn.vɪkt/ in British English and /ˈkɑːn.vɪkt/ in American English.

To clarify:
- **Con' vict** is incorrect for the noun form.
- **Con vict'** refers to the verb form (to convict), where the stress is on the second syllable.

So for the noun meaning a jailed criminal, use **con-vict**.
