美国警方负责调查案件，检察官决定起诉与否

Criminal Charges: How Cases Get Started

How police officers and prosecutors initiate criminal cases.

 

 

 

A criminal case usually gets started with a police arrest report. The prosecutor then decides what criminal charges to file, if any. Some cases go to a preliminary hearing, where a judge decides if there is enough evidence to proceed. Cases can also start when a grand jury issues a criminal indictment.

• 这是开始程序，必须检方开始。但终止是不是警察就可以呢，有的案子警察知道没有任何有效证据，搞错了，误会了，等等。 -lilywxc- ♀ (0 bytes) () 09/21/2018 postreply 18:38:20
