Legally yes, in practice, no. Last year a story broke about a small town sheriff's office running guns and drugs to another country in what must be the most inept undercover sting ever conceived. They had no jurisdiction or legal authority to operate where in other states/countries. Yet no one was charged. [EDIT] Had some facts way wrong. Here's the story I was thinking of. It was money laundering outside of their jurisdiction. No one was charged. http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/article24903394.html http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/community/miami-dade/a...
