Article 4,State citizens, Extradition ,section 2, Clause 2
"A Person charged in any State with Treason, Felony, or other Crime, who shall flee from Justice, and be found in another State, shall on demand of the executive Authority of the State from which he fled, be delivered up, to be removed to the State having Jurisdiction of the Crime."

       Well this says that even if you dont live here and you commited a crime you must attend court where you commited the crime. This is what the constitution says about someone who doesnt live in state but commited a crime in state. The article I picked out is about a baseball player who commited a crime while he was in brooklyn. Yet since he was a baseball player he felt as if he didnt have to follow rules so he said he wasnt traveling all the way to brooklyn to go back to court. But the law says that you have to go to court the place where you commited the crime.

   This supports Article 4, State citizend, Extradition, Section 2, Clause 4 of the United States constitution. That the defendant must attend the court room where ever they vommited the crime. This gives court officials the oppurtunity to make sure people listen to their rules. It also gives people authority to do what they need, it also gives people a chance to describe what went down, and it lets peole find eye witness who were around to help figure out what really happens and get you off.
     I think this is a good idea because doing this is teaching people lessons because if you done it once you wouldnt want to do it again. Also it make sense if you go back to where the crime happened to have witnesses if you want to prove that you are not guilty and is trying to get off.
