[QUOTE="pinevalley, post: 509081, member: 3710"] I talked to my difficult child's defense attorney today about revoking his bail. He told me that it will be very hard for him to ask to revoke the bail, since he is the defense attorney for our son. However he checked the conditions of his bond and difficult child is not meeting these conditions. One of the conditions of his bond is that difficult child is supposed to call the court every Monday and check in with his address. He did not make a phone call this past Monday (he was actually bonded out of jail that day, but he was still supposed to call the court when he arrived home. difficult child will also not call the court this Monday, because he doesn't know anything about these phone calls.) Monday is a court holiday here, so on Tuesday our attorney will talk to the state's attorney and they will make a motion to revoke his bail, because he is not making the weekly telephone calls. Our attorney is confident that he can get the bail revoked on Tuesday, and then a warrant will be issued for the arrest of difficult child. difficult child came to our house today to pick up a few things. We did not let him inside the house, and he asked us not to revoke the bond. He asked us why we can't just get a restraining order so that he can stay away from our house, instead of putting him in jail. I remembered what someone wrote in a post yesterday, that we had posted his bond on the condition that difficult child went to rehab. I told difficult child that since he refused to go to rehab, he was not meeting the conditions of the bond, and we will revoke the bond. I still don't think that he really believes that he will be sent back to jail. His eyes looked completely dead, like he was high, and he didn't really seem to care about anything at all. He did tell us that he has paid for several days to stay at a cheap motel a few minutes from our house. I think that difficult child has exactly what he wants right now, because he has a place to stay and he can use drugs as much as he wants. He paid for the motel with money from selling gold for cash. He didn't sell any of my gold, and I didn't even want to ask where he got the gold to sell. I am scared that difficult child will do something stupid this week-end and get arrested. But he has made his choice not to go to rehab, and he has to live with the consequences of his actions. I have not cried all day today (just every so often), so I am getting better at dealing with this mess. Thanks so much for thinking of my difficult child, and hoping for the best. [/QUOTE]
