Harboring a Suspect or Fugitive in a Federal Criminal Investigation

 

In a federal criminal investigation, harboring a suspect or a wanted fugitive refers to knowingly hiding a target of a federal investigation or a wanted criminal from federal authorities. In the case of a fugitive from justice, under federal statute 18 U.S.C. ยง 1071 (concealing an individual from arrest), four elements must be proved to prosecute an individual for the alleged commission of this crime of concealment.

 

The requirements to successfully initiate a prosecution against a defendant for this crime are as follows:

 

It must be proved that a federal warrant had been issued for the concealed individual's arrest. Secondly, that the person who allegedly gave the wanted person safe haven knew that such warrant was issued. It also must be proved that they actually concealed the fugitive from law enforcement and did so with the intent of preventing the fugitive's discovery and/or arrest.

 

If the person is not wanted by the Feral Gubermint then it isn't considered harboring.
