Is harboring a federal or state crime?
"Harboring a Fugitive" can be either a federal OR a state crime depending on whether the wanted individual was wanted on either a federal or a state crime.
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.
In the constitution what happens when a person is charged with a crime in one state and runs away to another?
Based on the Constitution, a person is charged with a serious crime in one state and then flees to another state can be arrested. He will then be brought back to the state where the crime was committed and all the necessary processes will be executed there.
Can a person be charged twice for the same crime-like you live in one state and committed the crime in another state-can both states charge you?
If you have not committed a crime in the state you live in, then no you can't be charged twice of the same offense. That would be double jepordy, and is against the law. Your home state CAN hold you until the state you committed the crime in either extradites you or drops the chargesAdded: The above answer seems unclear.If you committed a crime in state "A" and then committed the same crime in state "B" then BOTH states can charge you seperately, because you committed a separate crime in each state.If you committed a crime only in state "A" but then fled to state "B," state "B" cannot try you for a crime you committed in another state. HOWEVER they can hold you in jail until state "A" comes for you to return you to state "A" for prosecution .

How long will an individual get in prison for a fugative warrant?
It depends on the severity of the crime as well as the state the offense was committed. Say the fugitive is wanted in Florida for violating the terms of his/her probation and is picked up in South Carolina.The State of Florida has the option to expedite the person.However, it also has the option not to.Again depending on the severity of the crime. That happens to be my case by the way.Fla. didnt expedite me and terminated my probation. I got sentenced to the county for 30 days for being a fugitive.

If you committed the same offense, seperately, in each state, you can be charged with each separate crime. You cannot be tried in IL for a crime committed in IN, and conversely, you cannot be tried in IN for a crime committed in IL.
