Q: My boyfriend called the cops to get me on third floor or into heartland. They arrested me. I have mental disorders.
I black out. I have biploar disorder, anxiety, depression, add, ADHD. My boyfriend was just trying to help me and the cops arrested me and I was already in a blackout/mental breakdown. I hadnt been on my meds as my physcotrist died a month or so ago and that day I was going to get my medicine. I threw stuff at The wall was yelling etc and he told the cops no to arresting me but they did so anyways. What do I do?? I was charged with misdemeanor A on two accounts. Can I do probation and fine if I get all my information for my illnesses gathered?
A: Definitely hire a criminal defense attorney. The outcome of your case will likely differ depending if you represent yourself or get someone who knows what he is she is doing to represent you.
