Police response to a crime committed in Gibson County, TN, follows a legally prescribed protocol whether they are investigating the incident or seeking an arrest warrant from a local tribunal. According to the criminal code of Tennessee State, an arrest without an active warrant can only be affected if the suspect is taken into custody from the crime scene or while he tries to abscond from the area.

For a Gibson County warrant, the police have to go to the local tribunal that hears criminal matters and file a writ that details the criminal act and the role played by this person in it. If the information about the alleged crime offered in the affidavit is enough for the judge to see probable cause, a warrant is promptly issued.

This process is only followed for detention decrees in criminal cases. If the incident is a civil matter, a court can issue a bench warrant without any say from the police in the procedure. However, when it comes to actually making an arrest under the provisions of any decree for arrest, the police get the job done.

So when searching for arrest records and looking for information on outstanding warrants, you can approach either the judiciary or the local law enforcement office. To reach these offices in Gibson County, TN, go to:
