1)   Investigation : Police  gathers info , if they see crime committed, they can arrest without warrant.
2)   Warrant : Right to  search  your things or  arrest  you. Requires  probable cause . “ Reasonable   person  would believe that probably …”
3)   Arrest : When you are  no longer free to leave . You’ll be read your Miranda rights. Miranda Rights: You have the right to remain silent.  Anything you say can and will be  used against you in a court of law.  You have the right to have an attorney  present during questioning.  If you cannot afford an attorney,  one will be appointed for you.
Difference Between Detention and Arrest a)  Arrest is when you are no longer free to leave. You’ll be read your Miranda rights  (unless caught in the act of a crime). b)  Suspect detention: Hold you until the DA’s office is open or for your safety, 24-72 hours  (or till parents arrive). c)  Witness detention: Beyond a few minutes is typically not accepted
4)   Bail : Judge decide if you can go home before your set court date or if you must stay in jail. Bail is  money you give court in place of your body . You get it back if you show up at your court date.
5)   Preliminary Hearing : Judge will decide if there’s  enough evidence for a trial  or if to let you go.  Grand Jury : In fed cases, instead of a judge, a jury gets to decide if there’s  enough evidence for a trial  or to let you go ( same function as a prelim hearing ) 6)   Indictment : Formally  charged , it’s if a prelim hearing or grand jury says you need to go to trial.
7)   Plea Bargain : After indictment, and before trial date, DA tries to give you a deal where you confess for a lower punishment.  90% of cases.  http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/plea/view/
8)   Jurisdictional Hearing/Trial : Trial to determine guilt with a jury. What you see on TV all the time.  Jury Criminal Case: 100% Hung Jury :  Not 100%. The accused can be tried again (it would not be double jeopardy) Jury Nullification :  When a jury decides to all 12 vote someone is innocent, b/c they don’t like the crime, even if the person is clearly guilty.
