Description
Got a call that I had missed a Federal court date; now a warrant issued for my arrest. Knew everything about me; I needed to post bond, transferred to a bondsman in Chicago (should have been my first clue). Posted $1000; then had Phone Court, advised to stay out of jail would need to post $1000 (they hadn't received the other posts!)
