Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
my son was arrested in Lake County Florida, the alleged crime took place in orange county Florida. Is that legal? Additionally he was not read his rights. he was 18 at the time. My understanding is that he could have been detained in Lake County, but should have been booked and transferred to orange County the case was dropped, but it still shows as an arrest on his record.

Hello,
What do want to accomplish? That would help me to answer your question. If you are concerned about the arrest record, you could always have it expunged. If you are concerned about rights violations, that's something else. If a person is in custody (deprived of his or her freedom of action in any significant way), the police must give a Miranda warning if they want to question the suspect and use the suspect's answers as evidence at trial.
