The foregoing scenario is not unheard of and not even uncommon. Thousands of Americans are arrested and booked into jail for charges of crimes they never committed. It's a scary experience and one you should hope never to go through personally.
In the meantime, read the last post again and take a look at the way you've thought of people when you see them getting arrested or how you think of the guys you see in handcuffs along the side of the highway on your commute home from work.
Not exactly fair anymore when you think about it that way, is it? The first question that goes through your mind is probably, "what is going on?", but once the initial confusion passes, your next question should be, "what am I going to do".
Don't do what so many people do, and start talking to the people at the police station, or prison. Don't be fooled into thinking this is something you can handle on your own. If the situation is serious enough to warrant arresting you and bringing you to the station or jail, it is serious enough to get a lawyer.
That is why everyone should know at least one lawyer they can call on when needed.
