Do you think that matters? Shooters in the infamous north Hollywood shootout were previously arrested but everything was returned to them. Excerpt from Wikipedia:
On July 20, 1993, Phillips and Mătăsăreanu robbed an armored car outside a branch of FirstBank in Littleton, Colorado.[8] On October 29, they were arrested in Glendale, northeast of Los Angeles, for speeding.[9] A subsequent search of their vehicle - after Phillips surrendered with a concealed weapon - found two semi-automatic rifles, two handguns, more than 1,600 rounds of 7.62×39mm rifle ammunition, 1,200 rounds of 9×19mm Parabellum and .45 ACP handgun ammunition, radio scanners, smoke bombs, improvised explosive devices, body armor vests, and three different California license plates.[10] Initially charged with conspiracy to commit robbery,[11] both served 100 days in jail and were placed on three years of probation.[12] After their release, most of their seized property was returned to them, except for the confiscated firearms and explosives.
