Answer to Question 1

Arrested suspects, especially those arrested without a warrant, have to be taken
before a magistrate so that a judicial officer can decide whether there is probable
cause to sustain the deprivation of the suspect's liberty. The U.S. Supreme Court has
decided that the Fourth Amendment's prohibition against unreasonable seizures
demands that suspects taken into custody be taken promptly to a magistrate to
decide whether there are enough facts to back up the detention. The United States
Supreme Court has decided that promptly means that an arrested individual must,
except in an unusual case, at a minimum receive a probable cause determination
within 48 hours of arrest.

Answer to Question 2
