    hello good video im in wisconsin. im out on bail. can a cop go to the d.a and tell her he saw me at my baby moms house in WICH i have no contact with because she is the victim. can i be arrested in my next court date? or should i have been already charged?

      He can say that. What may happen is they will investigate to verify. Probably check cell towers. You shouldn’t be arrested. But our judicial system is broken so that’s a possibility, a small one.

    Arrested for a glass container and seatbelt? Geesh, that seems extreme. I would have thought something like that would just result in a ticket and fine 😮

    This has got to be the most detailed video I’ve seen in regards to probation violations. I for ☝🏾 am a Texas resident currently serving deferred in BOTH Tarrant & Dallas Counties and unfortunately just found out I have a Capias order for my arrest. Thing is my lawyer can’t find ANY information in regards to these allegations. I was planning on turning myself in here @2am in hopes to be processed and bailed out by afternoon time later today 😅…. (Ahead of PROBATION) But after searching 👀 YT for hours… and finding your video I believe I should just call my PO tomorrow and notify her of my current situation. I have labor detail Fri-28th with the Tarrant County Sheriff’s Department.. 😬 and I’m sure you understand why I’m a little nervous here but after much dilberation, I believe it’s the best way forward I want to get ahead of this and get the best possible outcome… So thank you for this video. ❤ Texas is a wonderful yet VERY ONE OF ITS KIND STATE…. And just fyi - this new offense is only a misdemeanor 😅… but I AM ON FELONY DEF FOR TWO SEPARATE COUNTIES…. If you have any advice please 🙏🏾 feel free to reply

    If you read more than the headline what they’re proposing is a gun grab pre-crime and more red flag laws, What they’re proposing has very little to do with domestic violence, It’s surveillance state and nanny state exactly what brought down Australia totalitarian state.
