That can and does happen, but it’s still a process that takes months at minimum. Months that your either sitting in jail, or if you’re one of the privileged, you’d be sitting out on bail, possibly on house arrest depending on if the judge set any conditions to your release upon bail.
Can’t the AG just decline to prosecute and release you? Being arrested =/= being charged after all.

My point was that being arrested does not require a jury to release you unless you’ve been actually charged with something.
