President Donald Trump’s influential MAGA ally Mike Davis is facing new scrutiny after allegedly threatening to stop a Justice Department official during negotiations over a major tech merger, according to a Wall Street Journal investigation. Gail Slater, then head of the DOJ’s antitrust division, w...
In theory, couldn’t they still issue a warrant and try have you extradited?
Extradition for something that isn’t illegal in the jurisdiction it occurred in is tyranny.
My (one party consent) state letting California extradite me for recording a phone call without notice would be as absurd as, for example, the US letting Bhutan extradite me for blasphemy because I called their god-king a doodoo head.
if you record someone on a phone call, the recording happens where you happen to physically be.
so the “crime” would have happened in a 1-party state, and would not have been a crime.
In theory. But most states don’t send people elsewhere for bullshit like that. Usually just for things like violent felonies. They don’t want to be seen as possibly protecting a murderer by keeping them from justice.
That’s not how that works.
if, for example, texas wants to send cops to arrest out-of-state doctors providing abortions to texas residents, that would be illegal, and the state the doctor resides in would almost certainly intervene if they had the opportunity to. (I.E. the doctor calls 911 and they have time.)
while there’s some circumstances where states would be okay with outside cops coming in to make an arrest, those circumstances are like “I was trying to pull him over and they fled across state lines.”
But they have no general authority to arrest people outside their jurisdiction. the usually process is that they would files the extradition paperwork/ gets an interstate warrant, the fugitive state (where the fugitive resides,) reviews the paper work and holds a hearing on it and then makes a decision, then the fugitive gets carted back. But the arrest happens by the law enforcement belonging to the fugitive state.
You seem to have assumed I was saying a State will send law enforcement to another state to get you. That’s not at all what I was saying, but I can see how you misread my comment that way.
I was referencing your State extraditing you to the other state for petty bullshit like recording your own calls. They’re not going to bother with that, there are way more pressing matters to attend to in their own state than doing what a state like Florida wants.
part of that whole process is determining the validity of the charges.
Like. even for violent murderers “I was never in Florida” or wherever, is a valid defense against being extradited.
We live in legally wacky time though, I’d probably err on the side of caution and announce the recording: It’d still have a deterrent effect and help prevent any legal fuckery.
