Yes, if it is a Federal crime, or if the state has contracted with a facility outside the state. Some states do not approve of or allow the "outsourcing" if prisons but this varies frim state to state.

Protection from being jailed without evidence?

When a person is arrested he or she can be held by authorities (jailed) for a specified amount of time (usually 48 hours) before they must be charged with the crime they are alledged to have committed. If the person is charged with a crime they are brought before a judge (arraigned) and the prosecutor presents the evidence to the court that the person should be held for trial. All persons charged with a crime in the US have the right to legal representation regardless of their ability to pay. Any person who is arrested should obtain legal counsel/advice before making a statement to authorities. All the above is correct and I would like to add that persons who are held in jail without being told of their charges or upon trumped up charges have the right to apply for a writ of habeas corpus. He/she applies to the proper court for the writ alleging that the detention is unlawful. The court issues the writ to the person holding the prisoner and commands that person to bring the prisoner before the court and justify the detention. If the prisoner proves that the detention is unlawful, the court will order the prisoner's release.

Why is GIS good?

It means that you can have more than one map up at once; instead of a giant map with pins, it is all stored on a computer. It makes it easier to see patterns and you can try out different ideas that could link to the crime you are investigating. (eg. bus routes) Lots of different people can look at it at the same time, and it is very precise.

How long does it take for a prisoner to get a gun?

IF your question is how long AFTER being released from prison/jail is it before a FORMER prisoner may legally own a gun- that depends on the crime that put them in jail. Once you are convicted of a felony, or a crime of domestic violence, you lose your right to ever own a firearm. This MAY be restored by the courts, but the time and process vary from state to stae. No standard time.


If a fugitive is arrested for another felony crime in another state will they be extritedto the original state where they are a fugitive?

I believe the person will have to stand trial in both states. Because the fugitive was arrested for another crime in a different state, that state may elect to keep them in custody until he/she is convicted. However, at some point in time, he/she will also be brought back to the state of his original crime to face charges there.

How long do you serve for a seven year sentence?

The amount of time served would depend first upon whether the sentence is for a federal or state crime. In the federal prison system, the prisoner will serve approximately 80-85% of their original sentence without any reductions. The amount to be served for a state crime would vary to state to state by statute.

Should everyone be in the same jail or prison or should you have different institutions for different crimes?

There are different institutions for different levels of crime, most state and federal prisons have reception centers where all convicted criminals go and then they are sent to facilities depending on the severity of the crime and the length of the sentence. In Illinois there are Maximum, Medium, and minimum security facilities and the type of crime determines where the person serves there time. Over crowding in a minimum facility can cause people to serve time in Max or Medium when they would usually serve it in Minimum security.

Can Iowa extradite me for a failure to appear warrant if I live in Colorado?

All US states and territories honor each other's requests for extradition - there are no 'safe-haven' states - it is impossible to know with certainty whether a particular state will choose to extradite you or not, there are simply too many variables. It may depend on the offense and the seriousness of it and/or how badly they want you returned - most states WILLextradite for felony offenses.


How much time for felony failure to render aid And what if there are two charges for this crime?

Every case is different. I do know that the time for this crime is up to 1 year county jail or up to 5 years state jail, and a fine of 10,000. But like I stated before every case is different, and if convicted on both counts, your sentences may be ran concurrent. Depends on the judge and if you have any priors....
