You're mind is really hazy because she wasn't being arrested. She had footage that Saren didn't want getting out, so she went to the Shadow Broker for protection and was almost caught by a traitor before you save her.


From Mass Effect wiki:

"She recovered a file from its audio banks that revealed Saren Arterius was behind the attack on Eden Prime, but possessing the file put her in grave danger. She was pursued by Saren's forces, and escaped to the Citadel"

Sounds like a fugitive to me...

You might want to look up the definition of fugitive. She committed no crime, she didn't escape incarneration, etc. etc.

I think YOU should.

Okay I did. You are right in the fact that a fugitive isn't necessarily a criminal by definition. However, how often is it used in that context. Gay means happy but the most common use of the word refers to someones sexuality and not their mood.
