Will Tennessee send you back to Minnesota on a warrant?

No. If you have an active Minnesota warrant and are arrested in Tennessee, the arresting authorities will hold you for a period of time during which Minnesota decides whether to extradite, or bring you back. That determination is based on the cost to get you and the severity of the charges.


Will a person with a felony warrant be arrested if they travel by air?

Not necessarily. (I am living proof.) I had "serious" felony warrants in MORE THAN ONE U.S. state. Still, I flew both on domestic flights and on international flights with no problems. There is no "Star Trek" style computer (yet) that just "finds" every and any wanted individual wherever & whenever they decide to buy a plane ticket! You're tripping hard if you believe that sort of thing! How did I do it? Well, I didn't "do" anything. I bought a ticket with cash, showed my passport and boarded the aircraft. And, if it is of any interest to you, I have flown in and out of several other nations since then, and the warrant(s) remained active during all of these flights. So, don't believe the nonsense people tell you! Every passenger on every flight isn't cross-referenced for felony warrants!!! That's preposterous! That's "made for t.v." One time, in fact, I skipped a court date (a bench warrant was issued immediately, of course), and then a week later I flew to Amsterdam (and back) despite the felony warrant being active in my name. I was only apprehended when I turned myself in. . . after I returned from Europe! So there! Law Enforcement would have to be actively searching for you at the precise airport from which you departed & at the precise time when you departed. Otherwise, if you pay for your ticket and board the plane like everybody else, NO, nobody is going to stop you!


I know someone that has a warrant and want to turn her into the police what do i do?

The easiest thing to do is to call the law enforcement agency with jurisdiction in your location and let them know that you have information concerning the whereabouts of an individual with an outstanding warrant. They will ascertain information concerning their location, last time they were seen there, possible vehicle information, etc. Also, depending on what the warrant is for, you might just inform the wanted person that they have a warrant and see if they will take the proper steps to either turn himself in or clear up the warrant. If the warrant is a simple one for traffic offenses, it is highly likely that they will be able to pay the fine and then the warrant will be destroyed. On the other hand, if the warrant is for something more serious then you need to consider your options because if it is proven that you have knowledge of where the wanted person is, yet you do nothing about it....then the police could potentially come after you for aiding a fugitive...etc..etc...etc.
