This market will resolve to "Yes" if Tucker Carlson is arrested or detained by law enforcement between the time of market creation and May 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to "No". Temporary holding at a detention facility while awaiting a judge’s decision on whether to grant a detention warrant qualifies, so long as they are held by law enforcement in an official capacity during that time. A qualifying arrest/detention includes: * Being taken into physical custody by law enforcement authorities (including federal, state, local, military, or international law enforcement) * Voluntarily surrendering to law enforcement authorities in response to an arrest warrant * Being formally booked or processed following detention * Being handcuffed by a state authority and taken to a police station * Surrendering at a police station or courthouse with their attorney * Being placed under house arrest or electronic monitoring The following scenarios will NOT qualify as an arrest/detention * An arrest warrant being issued but not executed * Being questioned or interviewed without arrest * Being named in an indictment without arrest The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the arresting government and law enforcement; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.Trader consensus prices "No" at 95.9% for Tucker Carlson's arrest by May 31, reflecting the absence of any Department of Justice indictment, charges, or official investigation confirmation since his mid-March 2026 video claiming a CIA criminal referral for alleged Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) violations tied to Iran contacts. Trump administration officials swiftly dismissed the assertions as unfounded, with no primary DOJ or CIA statements emerging and zero developments in the past 30 days amid historical precedents against prosecuting media figures for journalistic communications. This skin-in-the-game skepticism dominates, though late-breaking scenarios like a surprise federal charging announcement, U.S.-Iran escalation triggering retroactive FARA scrutiny, or leaked documents could still shift odds before resolution.
