But that line of thinking doesn’t make sense to me …
Just for the sake of argument, say you are a bank robber who successfully barricaded yourself somewhere (really uncomfortable) where police cannot reach you. You are then free to leave at any time, but would be arrested as soon as you did.
Would you really argue that police would have to drop the case to avoid torturing you?
Your line of thinking seems to presuppose that the threat of arrest was somehow unjust, but you never really argue for that point.
