Q: Just found out about a charge that has already turned into a warrant, wanting advice on this before I go in.
Do not feel that I am guilty for the crime that is being used against me
A: If there is an arrest warrant out, then you need to turn yourself in. Hire an attorney first, one that is experienced and is not afraid to do hearings and go to trial. the attorney should help you line up a good bonds person, so you can hopefully just get booked in and walk out and go home. Make sure you do not talk with police, or anyone else for that matter, about your case. If you get stuck in jail for some reason, remember that the phones and the video are recorded and can be used against you.
