Q: Trying to contact my sister-in-law
She was arrested Thursday in Traverse City for suspicion of drunk driving. She backed her car into a window at a Shell Gas station. No injuries. Her sisters are trying to contact her from different regions in the US, but with no luck. They have tried to cal the County Jail but there is a automated system requiring a call back from the jail. We think we received a call early this morning at 5:30 AM CDT, but didn't pick up in time. Can we contact a lawyer to check in on her and arrange bail for her? What's that process?
