Boyfriend in jail
My boyfriend was on probation for having a knife inbetween his matress which wasnt his it was his wifes for if he wasnt home for her protection. While his probation officer was doing an inhome search she found it so a judge issued him a bench warrant. We were driving and got pulled over and he was arrested. He was on probation for prior charges of having xanax on him. While he was in jail after being pulled over with me his wife called up 2 jail and told the jail that he had his prescrition on him so he was strip searched and they found his pills of oxy contin on him and they added 4 more charges to the three charges that he already had and added 1000 dollars to his bond. His bond is currently 26000 full cash. Is there any way possible if we got him an attorney co9uld we get his bond reduced or possibly released? He is prescribe oxy contin and they are not giving him his medication in jail and i am so worried about him not recieving his medication! What can we do please help us!

Re: Boyfriend in jail
Speaking generally, it is not unusual for a bond to be reduced after a lawyer enters the case for a defendant and puts forth the defendant's best case for a bond reduction. That's part of what we do.
Of course, there are no guarantees...
