Question Hi!!I recently found someone that had a warrant out for his arrest a couple of years ago on facebook.I believe the warrant was drug related.
However,I'm not sure if they ever caught him or not.They took him off the list,but I don't think they ever did capture him.His location says Australia.He's got many friends from Northern Indiana,which is where his waarant is.I think he may have eluded to avoid capture in Australia.
I don't personally know this person.What should I do?
Answer Hello Alex,
If you have reason to believe that a specific person may be a fugitive from justice, it is your civic duty, to convey that information to a police agency. Many agencies have what is sometimes called a :"secret witness" program, where information is received anonymously, and not factored into routine police reports.
The what-if's and wherefores are essentially irrelevant.
Ergo, in my view, you either address the matter as a responsible citizen, or you don't.
Decisions on choices are not always an easy matter.
Good Luck,
and Regards.
