According to GPT . . .

When a suspect commits a crime in one state (e.g., New York) and then flees to another state (e.g., Florida), law enforcement agencies in the two states typically collaborate to apprehend the suspect. This process is called extradition, which is a legal mechanism used to transfer a fugitive from one jurisdiction to another.

Here's a general overview of how the process works:

Issuing a warrant: When a crime is committed in New York, and the suspect flees to Florida, New York law enforcement will obtain an arrest warrant. This warrant will be entered into the National Crime Information Center (NCIC) database, which is accessible by law enforcement agencies across the United States.

Identifying and locating the suspect: If the suspect is identified and located in Florida, local law enforcement will typically arrest the suspect based on the New York arrest warrant. This can happen during a routine traffic stop, a background check, or as a result of a coordinated law enforcement effort.

Extradition process: After the arrest, New York will request Florida to extradite the suspect. This typically involves a formal request from the governor of the state where the crime was committed (New York) to the governor of the state where the suspect was found (Florida). The request may include documentation such as the arrest warrant, charging documents, and affidavits supporting probable cause.

Legal proceedings in Florida: The suspect has the right to an extradition hearing in Florida. During this hearing, a judge will determine if the extradition request is valid and if the suspect is the person named in the warrant. The suspect cannot contest the charges against them during this hearing; its purpose is only to establish the legality of the extradition.

Transfer of custody: If the judge approves the extradition, arrangements will be made to transfer the suspect from Florida to New York. New York law enforcement officers will usually travel to Florida to take custody of the suspect and transport them back to New York to face charges.

In the unlikely event that Florida refuses to make the arrest or cooperate with the extradition process, it may create tension between the two states. However, this is rare, as states generally work together to enforce the law and apprehend fugitives. In such situations, federal law enforcement agencies like the FBI can intervene and assist with the arrest and extradition process, as they have jurisdiction across state lines.

It's important to note that extradition laws and procedures can vary between states, and the process may be influenced by specific state laws, the nature of the crime, and interstate agreements.
