My boyfriend called me an hour ago, stating that he just been arrested for having a knife in his possesion.
Question Details:
My boyfriend name is Herrardo. He was on his bicycle going to apply a job at an agency. The cops stop him and decided to search him; they found a knife in his pocket, so the cops arrested him. My boyfriend called me and told me that bad news, and I asked Herrardo when are they releasing him from jail, and he said next week on Wednesday. Questions: Do they have right to keep him in jail, because he didn't do anything; I know he had a knife but he didn't harm anybody? Question 2: I want to take him out of jail today, please tell me how?
Criminal Defense Law Answers
Monday is a court holiday so they can keep him until Wednesday unless you bail him out or a judge signs an order releasing him on his own recognizance. Since it is late on Friday afternoon, you ought to call the Sheriff's Department and see what the odds are on his being released on his own recognizance. You also ought to call a bail bonds agency and find out how much his bail is.
