[QUOTE="Marcie Mac, post: 492776, member: 47"] Don't get me started on a rant with the legal system here in CA. Danny was picked up on a warrant at his boss's wedding a little over a month ago. I called and found out that bail was 100,000 -WTH - it was supposedly for resisting arrest back in "2007" - even the deputy at the jail said "something is wrong with this bail" Now you know they would not have let him out of jail with a charge like that, and although he has been stopped a few times, and the local police knew he had a warrant, didn't feel like making a 40 mile drive to take him to that jail. He was transferred three times over the weekend to different places,and when he went before the judge they let him go same day - no probation, nothing-judge just said ok time served and get out of here. A hugh waste of time and money on a bogus charge. His boss took a week off as HE had a charge for an unpaid "pot" ticket (before the law went into effect that if you had some weed below a certain amount they don't do anything) -was prepared to do his week so went to turn himself in, clerk looked at the charge, stamped it, and said done - go home. If they are going to spend money, I wish they would spend it on programs to actually "help" keep them out of jail, but I guess that is too logical Marcie [/QUOTE]
