One of the good things about working in a myriad of jurisdictions as I have
is that you get to see all sorts of systems and they are different. No state
is the same in matters of arrest or citizens arrest. KY was different than Il
and both were different than TN
TN the requirements are the loosest I have ever seen. KY and IL fairly
restrictive, KY more so than IL In KY warrantless custody arrests are the
ruke rather than the exceptioneven for misdemeanors. Citations are less
common and citizens arrest very broad even for misdemeanors, andLEO
requirements are different too. The operative words such as reasonable
suspicion, probable cause and requirements of on view vary from state to
state as well as the differences between misdemeanors and felony thresholds
and so on. In this echo, jurisdictions are muddled. everyone applies the
standards they are familiar with which are their own, and this is
unsderstandable, but trying to apply ones own legal requirements and expect
them to be the same for everyone is not realistic.
In a basic practical understanding I have gained, Southern States give the
police the broadest aurhority, but are also the ones with the most ussc bad
rulings limiting police power and authority. A lot of Nprthern officers
lateral to Nashville and culture shock is quickly overcomr. It is always
easier for any {PO to use laxer laws, and adjust to a looser system than it
is for an officer to go back to stricter systems. Many conversations with
NYCPD, CHICAGO, and other lateral transfers like northern troopers show why
nashville requires
