I was in jail for 5 months. :/
 
Well, I got in a really bad car accident. Felony charge. I spent 5 months in jail trying to fight my case to lower it to a misdemeanor. I sat in jail, for no reason, because I had a Border Patrol hold, so no bond, even though I totally qualified for one!!I sat there until the lawyer had everything he needed so I could get the best deal. Finally, Dec. 6, I got two misdemeanors, one year probation and a letter to the victim. The next day I got transferred to the immigration facility in Orlando. Spent two weeks there. I had a bond, again, too high now, so new immigration lawyer lower it. Took two weeks to get a court date. Then I finally did and they had to approve of my bond, two more days. I'm lucky. I got out on Dec. 21. Right before my birthday. I still feel trapped though. My case is not done. I have court on Feb. I'm 21 years old, married, and fighting for a better life. It's really hard. I wish the best of luck to everyone. If you do drive, or are doing anything illegal, be very careful!! Jail is not pretty. Wish me luck. :/

Sorry to hear. I was bonded out after a day and things went my way in court. Curious as to your felony charge as well. Good luck.

Felony was leaving scene with injury. Lowered to leaving scene with property damage. It was pretty awful, please don't judge. I feel awful of my actions. :(
