Document Summary

Drug transactions: not all crimes are detected. If police witness crime or possibility of crime occurring in future. Ex: suspicious looking, going from house to house trying to open doors etc. Unless it is shoplifting and see person leaving without paying. Intake procedures: arraignment within 24 hrs, bail hearing. Judge comes up with conditions have to go by. Terrorist activities for example, will not get bail hearing: plea-bargaining. Plead guilty for some sort of benefits. Also good for police/lawyers: keep the charges they have proof for, want to convict at.
