The info. on new charges were brought while i was serving from the 1st time(my bail was also raised, 5000 to 75,000)..I was supposed to be 'blanketed' from any new filings. What are my options? Warrants have been issued! how can they wait to file ese on me when i was incarcerated TWICE since? All new charges resulted from deposits made into my checking account..how does that constitute ID theft? Please Help??
