Well, it sounds like good advise to let your child sit and stew in jail for a day or two to let them reflect on their sins. But a few years back I recieved a call from my son telling me that he had been arrested in Kentucky and needed bailing out. He swore that he had done nothing wrong. I took off for Ky. that night and bailed him out. I trusted him to tell me the truth. I retained a lawyer in that city and a few months later we went to trial. No loopholes in the law, no outstanding attorney tricks, just the fact of an over zealous deputy that saw Illinois plates and decided to arrest him. This all came out in court and the judge recoginized it. The lawyer cost me couple of hundred of dollars but I had faith in my son and had raised him to tell the truth to me and the money was well worth it. If he had been guilty, he would have fessed up and taken his punishment. We need to presume innocent, just like the law says, and trust in our children. He is an adult now but still reminds me that I trusted him and how much he appreciates that fact.
