Q: My boyfriend ia 17, and had a warrant out for his arrest. He got picked up and sent to JDC. How long is it going to be?
-JDC in Ramsey County, MN
- its been 4 days so far
- this isnt his first offense
-He was on probation
How long is it going to be? (Meaning, when will I see him again? Will I be able to talk to him soon?)
A: No one could answer that question with the given information. People held for probation violations tend to be locked up longer, than those who only are facing a new charge. Contact the jail to see if they allow visiting hours for juveniles. If he was charged with a felony at age 16 or older, his record is public. That would mean you could check with the court for his next court date.
