Re: Unlawful Imprisonment

You have posted your question as a civil litigation topic rather than as a criminal law topic. Because you are in jail, I assume that you have been charged with some crime and that you cannot afford bail or an attorney. You should request an attorney be appointed for you as soon as possible. As the criminal lawyers will tell you, "Don't talk to the police anymore until you have talked to your lawyer." Assuming that you have not yet been convicted, it probably is premature to be talking about "higher groups."
