Arizona is one of the worst states,,,, here's my suggestion. They WILL come and get you. They have nothing better to do with their time or their money. Was this in Phoenix/ Maricopa County? If so, you are double-screwed. These cowboys still feel it is the wild, wild west and treat you as such. This may sound flip but it is way too close to the truth. The Maricopa County Sheriff department has been investigated numerous times by the US Department of Justice, the Maricopa County Board has paid many large suits as a result but the old people keep electing him. When you live out of state it is really difficult to find a good Arizona attorney, most will want 5K just to talk to you,, not defend you,,,, just talk. We live 2,000 miles from Arizona and they picked up my husband on a charge that is 15 years old. Many injustices were done along the way but we did not have 50K to hire an attorney to fight it. He is currently a "resident" of Arizona. So, my suggestion is get educated on your crime and your rights.. cuz Arizona isn't going to give you any rights. Wishing you good luck is a true under statement. By the way, Sheriff Joe was paying bounties to collect on old warrants. They will get you... perhaps when you least expect it. This is not meant to frighten you but to educate you. Then be prepared to eat green bologna and ostrich meat. These are not exaggerations. Say your Hail Mary's and get busy trying to resolve this before they get you.
