[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 936434, member: 2299"] Are you confusing being detained with being charged? Cops don't charge people. They can detain them for question for a limited time if they have meet a probably low bar for criteria for doing so and they may have in this case but considering Miller is by all accounts cooperating and always has it's more likely they just asked him to come in and he did. But charges are brought by the DA and it's most certainly not a charge first and ask questions later thing. Because most likely the people you are thinking of in other cases more closely match up not with Miller but with Miles who is being charged with capital murder. It's not just that Miller didn't know the intent to use the gun. His intent in bringing the gun wasn't even to help the person who committed the crime. AFAIK you can aid and abet without knowledge of the impending crime, but there has to be intent to help the offender (not necessarily with the crime) and that's hard to argue here from what I've told since Miles wasn't the actual offender. If I had to guess, situations that were actually comparable to Miller probably aren't widely known to the public because his status as a a basketball player is the only reason this is a story at all. In any other case the story would be with the two people charged with capital murder and those who aren't charged would be ignored completely by the media. [/QUOTE]
