Contrary to popular belief, the police are not just handed arrest warrants in Fluvanna County, Virginia, when and as they require. They have to put in a significant amount of legwork to procure these judicial orders. First, after the investigation is completed, the sheriff’s office has to put down all the evidence gathered in black and white for the local magistrate’s perusal.

This evidence has to be sufficient for the sitting judge to establish that there is probable cause to believe that the incident was indeed of a criminal nature and that there is also probable cause to conclude that the accused had a role to play in this act. When the circumstantial and forensic evidence cannot bring this to light, the witnesses are called for a sworn deposition in front of the judge.

After this due diligence, the active warrant is handed to the police with an explicit order that the alleged offender should be arrested at once and from any place that he may be found in. The police have the authority to even break open doors to effect the arrest of such a person. Add to this the fact that officers from all across the nation have information on outstanding warrants from Fluvanna County, and it is easy to understand the sheer gravity of such an order.
