[QUOTE="motynes, post: 407263, member: 745"] Probable cause is an extremely low standard. Basically if you have one persons uncorroborated sworn statement of a crime, then you have PC. It’s basically “if there is some evidence a crime is committed” then there is PC to arrest someone. Some judges hold prosecutors and police to a higher standard, but that is really contrary to the current state of the law regarding PC. I’ve been doing criminal defense and civil rights litigation for 13 years and have prosecuted part time for the last five. My wife was a prosecutor for 12 years. Probably cause to issue an arrest warrant is just a low bar. Getting a conviction on these types of cases is hard. I know nothing about the facts, but the length of time does nobody any favors and makes things much harder. [/QUOTE]
