Technically. If they took him in, that could trigger the clock on him being held and limited the amount of time they had until they would have had to let him loose.
The Orlando cops (not sure if they were Orlando PD or Orange County SD) held Casey Anthony for hours, driving her around to confirm/disprove her various stories. That is how her only convictions (for lying to police) came about, her lying while they were just "driving her around" - not under arrest even though they did put her in handcuffs.
Or with this guy maybe he was cooperative when at the private home and they did not want to turn off that cooperation by taking him in?

Could have boxed as well; didn't the Tsarnaev he was friends with do that? (nt)
