Murder is rarely a federal crime. But no, when and if it is deemed a federal crime it is tried in federal court.Oh, Jesus...FoxNews.
A state doesn't have the jurisdiction to arrest people that are breaking federal law. They also don't have the jurisdiction to try, convict and sentence them.
They MAY assist the Feds but they cannot write laws that give them the power to implement Federal laws in this manner.
So only the federal government can try murder cases, because there are federal murder laws. Also, only federal marshalls can issue a speeding ticket on a US interstate? Are you retarded?
This is true, but if a state trooper or local sheriff comes across a federal fugitive , he doesn't simply say oops that's a federal crime and let them go.

The interstate thing is silly...there are no federal traffic cops and speed limits are not set by the fed.[/QUOTE]
