Jumping off of mck's previous post:
Any legal minds on here that could answer a hypothetical?
If someone living in the state of Colorado lied to police during a criminal investigation,
1) What's the likelihood of that individual being arrested on a charge of lying to LE during a criminal investigation prior to having any evidence that a crime had been committed and/or evidence that supports said party's involvement;
b) If an arrest were made on a lying charge alone, what would the minimum sentencing guidelines be (even an approximate guess)
c) If evidence is found AFTER respective individual completes jail time that solidly implicates said party, can that individual be rearrested on different charges?
Just a "what if" thought that went thru my head after reading mck's prior post.
