Fugitive warrants are sought when the wanted person refuses to sign a waiver of extradition from the state which holds that wanted person in custody for the state which the crime was originally committed.Because the wanted person refuses to sign the waiver of extradition a fugitive warrant and governors warrant must be obtained. The wanted person is then extradited without his signature of consent to be transported to the state that the original crime was committed.I would like to know who is responsible for obtaining the warrants.

Why would the Fugitive Slave Act scare free african americans?
The Fugitive Slave Act scared free African Americans because it allowed for the capture and return of escaped slaves even if they were living in free states. This meant that free African Americans could be falsely accused of being runaway slaves and taken into custody without proper legal process or protection. Additionally, it heightened the risk of being kidnapped and enslaved, even for those who had legally obtained their freedom.
What is the Central Warrants bureau in San Francisco and what do they do?
Any warrants bureau or section maintains files of active arrest warrants issued by the courts in the agency's jurisdiction. The people who work in this bureau enter these warrants into local, state and national wanted persons databases so that the existence of the warrant will be revealed if a wanted person is "run" by a law enforcement officer. When one of these inquires results in a "hit" for a warrant held by that warrants bureau, someone at the law enforcement agency that made the inquiry will call the warrants bureau on the phone. The warrants bureau employee will retrieve the original copy of the warrant and verify that it is still in force and that the information describing the wanted person matches the person held by the agency making the inquiry. If the warrant is valid and the information matches, the warrants bureau employee will check the file to see whether extradition from that location is authorized. Law enforcement agencies can't afford to send officers to retrieve fugitives on every warrant in every place where the fugitives may be found. The warrant file may indicate they will send officers to the adjacent county, or just that part of the state, or to adjoining states, or anywhere. If the file indicates extradition is authorized where the wanted person is being held, the person is jailed pending arrival of the officers. If not, the fugitive is released and the warrant goes back into the file. A warrants bureau may also have officers assigned to it who attempt to locate fugitives and have them arrested. For instance, a local informant in San Francisco may provide information tat a wanted fugitive is in Little Rock, Arkansas. If the information is reliable and specific enough, the officers may call the police in Little Rock and ask if they can go to the address and arrest the fugitive. It's up to the police in Little Rock to decide if they will assist. If they do and the fugitive is located, he is held until the SF officers can arrive. The warrants bureau officers may also try to serve arrest warrants locally. For example, if a person with a local address has several hundred dollars in unpaid traffic tickets, the officers may go to that address and try to arrest hm.
