While it may seem like nit-picking, you are not "under arrest" until you are placed "under arrest," which requires a charge of some sort. You are legally entitled to walk away from a cop when ever you feel like it - realizing, of course, that you may then be placed "under arrest" on a trumped up charge. ;-) B.

Nothing new. I posted a story some time ago about a PJ student, who I knew, as he worked at a local lab, who was arrested after taking photographs inside LAX. This was right after the New York attack. His film was confiscated, but his camera was eventually returned, but only after the LA Times, and local news outlets started looking into it. By the way, Mr. Maginnis can easily prove he was in the station, as everything is under constant videotaping. Technically, once an officer of the law stops you, even to ask about the weather, you're under arrest until_he_decides the_conversation_is over.
