Legal Question in Criminal Law in Maryland

"Can they?" Is asking if there is probable cause for a warrant. It's a very low standard, but certainly not automatic. But if a phone is found on the scene of the shooting with a pic of the same kind of weapon matching the bullet/casings, then that may be probable cause. Then they try to get a confession or maybe an accurate I'd or even DNA evidence. The important thing is to NOT talk to the cops. It will almost NEVER help you but will almost ALWAYS hurt you.

Anyone may be arrested and accused of a crime. Proving beyond a reasonable doubt that a particular person committed a crime is another matter. It is not a crime to have a picture of agun on a cell phone.
