I have a character suspected of murder (falsely) in NYC around the late 80s / early 90s.
1) can he be arrested on probable cause even if all evidence so far is circumstantial?
2) if he's thought to be a flight risk, would that make a difference in arrest decision?
3) How long can he be held without bringing him before a judge?
4) can a judge confiscate his passport? What if he has likely other ways of leaving the country? Say multiple passports under other names? Would he be placed under electronic surveillance?
Finally, is there a website which lists step by step from suspicion to arrest to trial to being thrown in jail?
Thx in advance.
