Absolutely, it just takes a little longer.... and the time you spend sitting in some other state's jail won't count as "good time" against your sentence either.

How do you find out who has custody of a inmate while being extradited. how do you find out if there are going to be new charges filed?

The jurisdiction which learned he was a wanted fugitive and arrested him will have him in their custody until such time as the extradition order (Governor's Warrant) is delivered by the jurisdiction which wants him. The extraditing state may send a team of agents/officers to take custody of him and transport them back - OR - the 'wanting' state may use the services of a private company to do the actual transportation. When the arrestee arrives back in the 'wanting' state it is likely that, in addition to whatever they were wanted for in the first place, the charge of being a 'Fugitive from Justice' will likely be added to it.


How long can OK hold someone on extradition to MS?

When you get arrested in Oklahoma for an out of state warrant, you have the option to either fight extradition to that state or waive your rights and go back willingly. If you sign the extradition papers to return to that state, then the other state has 14 business days to come and get the individual. If you choose to fight the extradition, then Oklahoma will charge you as a fugitive from justice and set a bond. Many states won't allow a fugitive bond. If you can post bond, then you will be set free. There will be a hearing in 30 days to see if the other state has issued a governor's warrant. If there isn't a warrant yet, then another court date will be set 60 days later. They usually have the governor's warrant by then. If not, then the charges in Oklahoma will be dropped and you will be set free. However, there will still be the charges in the other state. After the governor's warrant has been issued the 14 days rule is typically set aside. This means that the other state has more time to come and pick you up.

What must states do when a fugitive flees from one state to another?

They check with the state in which you committed the offense to determine if that state will extradite you. If so, you will be held until the administrative and legal process takes place that will legally allow you to be transferred back. This process is known as extradition, and does not necessarily happen overnight due to the process that must take place.
