Anyway this is EXACTLY how it works - Well, the guy version, I don't know about female version. Anyway - They put you in a holding tank, 8x8 cell (no bars/metal/sound proof blue gates). In this 8x8, there is a bench - This bench fits 3 people, four-five, max. Everyone else? Sits on the floor, next to the shitter, etc etc. They will squeeze about 14-20 people in a single, shitty smelling cell. From there, they will call you out, within an hour or two - Collect your jewerly, piercings, money, and take your mugshot. After that, they send you back to the cell you just left, and you spend an additional hour in there. From there, they move you over to a larger cell - This cell will be much much larger, and will have phone access. Phone access is unlimited, it's actual in the cell. No "one" call limit. Problem is, all the negros hog these phones and call up relatives and girlfriends and chit chat. Nevertheless, you make your call, and she can call a bail bondsman. While shes making her calls, or what have you, you wait two-four more hours in the cell. Then - processing begins, and they will finger print you. Finger printing is a seamless process, however, it takes 4-8 hours for them to check your finger prints, to out of state. See if you've any warrants, if you're a fugitive, etc etc.
In the meantime, as her prints are going through? You can bond her out. Once bonded - she will wait for her prints to come back good, if they do, they will release her pretty quickly.
If you don't bond her? Or do not get a bondsmen, she will go in front of a majestry (sp?), the next day, during the afternoon. If the crime is pety, the judge/majestry will release her with a fine. That way you pay no bond + she's released. If her crime is of a serious nature, you can still bond her. However the judge may or may not increase/remove her bond. The whole point of bonding someone out, is to buy them sometime in the "free" world, get a lawyer, etc etc. But like I said, if the crime is pety, let her spend the night/good part of afternoon and wait for the majestry to release her.
Game over. Good luck.
