null is usually used in information systems (most likely in this case a SQL server of whatever flavor to contain the data displayed on the site) that’s means nothing, invalid, no data etc.

So in this case, that particular field of data for the page contains no data an thus returns “null”

If the column that says “statute” says null, chances are there was a warrant for their arrest.

Or they were arrested for narcotics and are awaiting results to confirm it was an illegal substance.

Do you know where they are being held?

I don't, all I know is they were arrested, I'm not sure how to find where they would be.

If they may have been transferred to the ACI, check here: https://doc.ri.gov/inmate-search

If it was a recent arrest, maybe they're waiting for bail to be set.

Yep, he's in the aci. Being held without bail at the moment but no charges listed. Thanks for this. It's unfortunate but at least I know now.

No problem. I am glad I could help. There are instructions on contacting an inmate being held at the ACI. Getting an attorney is probably the best way to help him.
