Hire an attorney. Do not discuss this with ANYONE other than the Attorney. Stop posting your criminal issues on the net.

The 48 hour rule comes from the Supreme Court decision in County of Riverside v. McLaughlin: https://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/89-1817.ZO.html

To amplify Quincy's post, the 48 hour rule only matters if you are in custody on a warrantless arrest. Otherwise, it is completely meaningless. They can arrest you any time between the time the alleged crime happened and the statute of limitations expires. Five years for the felony drug charges, two years for the misdemeanors.

As pointed out, you should be talking to an attorney and nobody else about this.
