Why not, you know, fucking arrest them like a normal person?
I swear the Dave Chappelle skit is just proving its accuracy at this point.
I assume this is a genuine question? This is a state-level indictment from Georgia and Mr. Trump resides in Florida. Georgia cops can't just go on an extrajudicial joyride across state lines and grab him. That would, unfortunately, be abduction.
In cases like these where a state wants to prosecute someone residing in another jurisdiction, the process generally goes like this:
[^1]: Generally speaking, states are federally obligated to honor each other's extradition requests, though asking nicely still remains the first resort. Gov. DeSantis does have an opportunity to grandstand here, but he's much more likely to drag out the process rather than outright defy it -- pissing off the FBI is something which states try to avoid doing
Much be nice to be rich where you do crime, go anywhere you want, and escape the punishment. No federal no-fly list to be put on because it's all state charges.
Uh, yeah... I guess? Step 2 is doing a lot of heavy lifting because states can and do extradite internationally. There's a whole federal office which exists for this specific purpose: the OIA. It's hardly a "happily ever after" situation to spend the rest of your life far away from home and constantly looking over your shoulders.
That would work too.
