My question involves an arrest warrant from the State of: California
My friend got arrested a few months back on a grand theft shop lifting charge. He got bailed out but left the country to flee the consequences but really wants to return home. He is now afraid to enter back into the USA with this warrant but would like to resolve the matter. He has a juvenile record for robbery.
Is it possible to get apprehended when traveling between countries in south or central america?
What is the possible jail time he could be looking at if he is apprehended?
What are the chances he can get through US customs without being arrested?
Are authorities looking for him or is a bench warrant where they arrest him if he eventually runs into the law again?
Can someone please give me some advice and scenarios so I can help my friend make a decision?
Ask any questions and i will answer to my best ability. I must help him resolve the matter. thank you
