That's going to depend on what identification documents the prison will accept. Call the prison where your boyfriend is being held and ask them what forms of ID would be accepted for visits. A foreign passport should be sufficient for them.

I was taken to the hospital and had a BAC of .36. A police officer came and talked to me when I was in the hospital and asked... View More

They do not have to use anything that you might have said. The facts speak for themselves, you had a bac of .36. That is quite dangerous. Why should you not get a criminal charge? You are obviously a danger to yourself. Now, should the criminal justice system step in and force you to get help?... View More

It is a mistake to think that you can get a complete answer on an internet forum like this, and any response you get is given with the provision that you will go see a local attorney for advice. Do that, find out if anything can be done at all about this.

In the court file. Also, if it was criminal case, all police departments have access to a database which will show that information.

If you are a witness, probably. The spousal privilege usually only applies for things that occur during the marriage. This ocurred before marriage.
The spouse needs to get a private criminal defense attorney.
The FBI served a warrant for a search and seizure, there is no receipt of property seized at the time of this warrant? Isn't it law that this receipt be left at the site of execution or with the home owner? I have now been held for just short of 1 month by feds and feds haven't even... View More

You need to talk with your attorney about this, and only your attorney. You know, the one appointed to represent you. I didn't know that inmates have access to the internet to ask questions like this. You should know that this is not private, it is not confidential.

That depends upon what the order says. You have not provided what we need to know.
My fiance has been sitting in jail on an agents warrant for over 3 weeks. There are no plans of extradition at this time and he feels that he is being wrongfully imprisoned.

He needs to get a private criminal defense attorney and if he is indigent, the public defender can be appointed, probably.

Self defense is a legal defense, but it depends upon the facts and you have given very little.

You gave no facts. We need to know the basic facts in order to answer a question, usually.

Is there a particular right you are concerned about? For the most part, confidential informants have the same rights as anyone else.
