Do you know what happens to someone that you love or somebody that you're in an intimate relationship with when they get arrested for domestic violence in New York City? If the answer is no, you're going to want to watch this three-part series where we're going to discuss exactly what happens to somebody when they get arrested from the time an arrest happens to the time that they are released from court following arraignment. Hey guys, Jeff Greco. I wanted to talk to you today about what happens, specifically, what happens in New York City when you get arrested for a domestic violence case.

When someone is transported to an NYPD precinct following an arrest, similar to the 19th precinct behind me, a number of things are going to occur when the suspect arrives at the precinct. Number one, they're going to be fingerprinted. After the fingerprinting, they're going to be photographed. After that point, they're going to actually begin the initial paperwork that will be later sent to the court at central booking. Everybody always asks, how long does it take for my loved ones when they get transported to the precinct? Do they get out soon? The answer is no, they do not. Typically, it's going to be at least four hours, if not more, at the precinct before they're ever even transported to central booking.

We'll talk about central booking in a completely separate video, which will actually be part two. But what happens at the precinct is generally not very much outside of the fingerprinting and the photographing. It's a lot of waiting around.
