An unfortunate, life-changing event just happened to you. You have come into contact with a law enforcement officer, and you were arrested for an alleged crime. You are angry. You are confused. You are embarrassed.
It is understandable that you are angry. You could be angry at the officer, especially if you feel they treated you wrongly. You could be angry with your friends, because maybe hanging out with them this one last time has put you in the wrong place at the wrong time. You could be angry at yourself. How could this have happened to you?
It is reasonable that you are confused. What happens next? You have heard so many stories, and so much contradicting advice. Who do you go to? What do you do? Is the cop really going to cut you a break like he said he would? When does the next thing happen, and how much time do you have to act?
It is possible that you are embarrassed. How do you tell your family, your kids, and your work? You wish this never happened, and you want this to go away. But it is not going to go away on its own. Hiding will not make it end and will only make the situation worse.
