28 USC 566 authorizes which of the following?

• A. Establishes the chain of custody procedures
• B. Allows deputies to carry firearms and arrest without a warrant
• C. Defines reasonable suspicion
• D. Sets standards for admissibility of confessions

Answer: (B)

28 USC 566 grants deputy U.S. marshals the authority to carry firearms and to arrest individuals without a warrant when acting in the performance of their official duties. This ensures they can protect the public, safeguard the judiciary, and enforce federal laws while carrying out tasks like transporting prisoners or pursuing fugitives. The other topics—chain of custody procedures, the definition of reasonable suspicion, and standards for admitting confessions—come from different rules and case law and are not what this statute authorizes.
