How to use arrested in a sentence?

  1. Aceh Police:

    Cutting the hair of those arrested to ‘make them masculine’ and forcing them to dress like men are forms of public shaming and amount to cruel, inhuman and degrading treatment.

  2. Christopher Wray:

    There are some important things that are getting lost here in respect to that case, it’s the FBI who initiated this investigation, it’s the FBI and our agents that painstakingly and methodically put the case together against him, and it’s the FBI that arrested him….I think [what] the charges in that case demonstrate is the FBI’s willingness as an organization to shine a bright light on conduct that is totally unacceptable, including when it happens from one of our own people, and to hold those people accountable.

  3. Steve Young:

    I dont feel that hes the type of person that would do this sort of thing, if they came and arrested him they obviously feel they have something that would tie him to the initial explosion, but Im a big believer in our court system, and thats where it has to play out.

  4. Ren Zhengfei:

    One month before that arrest, she wanted to resign and find a job elsewhere. She was not happy working here but after being arrested this matter improved our relationship and now she understands how difficult life can be, in the past she had a smooth path. She couldn't take the setbacks very well ... you have to suffer a lot before becoming a hero and if you don't have scars, you won't have tough skin.

  5. Nicola Canestrini:

    Because Amanda Knox initially admitted to a role in the crime, Amanda Knox wouldn't likely win. If a suspect lies to investigators before they are arrested, it is difficult to prove they were falsely imprisoned.
