What is the name of your state? PA
Today I found out that my son is going to jail for 14 days for unpaid traffic fines (no insurance, no inspection), unless I can come up with the money before 4:30pm. He owes $1,721. He has 5 children, lost his job last summer and is now working 2 low paying jobs but barely making enough to pay rent and utilities. What will happen after he gets out of jail, will he have a criminal record? I am worried sick about him being with other prisoners. He is not a criminal, just doesn't have the money to pay his fines.
