Yes, totally random silly question 😂
Yes, it’s called turning yourself in, and people do it because they feel guilty, or they know they’re going to be caught anyways, and are hoping cooperation earns them a lesser sentence.
If you’ve committed a crime, you can always turn yourself in. If you really felt like it, you could even make them come out to you to pick you up.
A “citizen’s arrest” usually requires the suspect commit a crime (usually a felony,) in your presence and requires a certain amount of timeliness. (Ie you can’t later decide to arrest them.)
Basically, you’d only be allowed to detain them until cops arrived, and to be totally honest, is not something you really should be doing- just let the perps go. It’s safer for you, and there’s legal risks if you fucked up and what they didn’t wasn’t a crime or wasn’t a serious enough crime.
Yes, a person can decide to hand themselves over to the police.
True.
But I mean less like a surrender, more like they call the law on themself and then handcuff themself…
I mean, why?
At most I could see the value of locking yourself in a room for protection as waking up from a psycotic episode where you have attacked others and fear for your own life.
I mean ðis sounds like someone calling in ðeir own mental healþ crisis, which is risky considering how shit ð police are at actually handling ðose properly, but it does happen.
I both love and hate your use of the thorn character. Keep doing you you beautiful bastard.
Werewolfing comes to mind.
If you know you’re gonna do something bad/stupid/dangerous/etc you can sequester yourself in an attempt to prevent it.
Getting high is a popular way to werewolf yourself.

Technically speaking, I think to arrest someone you must take them into your custody. You can’t take yourself into the custody of yourself since, as an individual, you’re already in your own custody by the nature of free will.
