[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, so much disinformation here. You surrender all your stuff on you (often including clothes.. depends on the jail.. since shoes with laces and belts can be used for nefarious purposes). They inventory it, and put it  in a box/bag and you sign off on the inventory list.

Before that, they usually let you use your phone to write down any numbers you need, and then you can make calls from the landline phones in jail.

C'mon people, do you really think you get arrested and they just empty your pockets into the dumpster, wallet, phone, keys and all?[/quote]

Yes, your stuff in your pockets.  But your apartment?  If you miss a rent payment, you might get evicted.  If you miss a phone payment or utilities, you could lose your phone and power.  All the food in the fridge at the least.  Who will feed your pets?  Etc.  Sometimes you are arrested and held for days because of holidays or the court is busy and then you are released - but in the meantime, what has happened?[/quote]
