I'll try to keep this as short as possible. In September of 98 I was diagnosed bi-polar, and I moved in with my ex-brother in-law's house so he and his wife could help me keep my kids.(because the court was trying to say I wasn't a fit mother) They ended up using me to babysit their four kids plus my two, and took all my welfare money for so called rent. I got a job to help some more, and opened a checking account with my first paycheck. When they found out, they asked me to write a check for groceries and they would pay the bounced check fees, and repay the money. the wife ended up talking me into writing 2000.00 worth of bad checks, and then they kicked me out of their house and never have paid them. Now I have the police looking for me for 2 warrants for my arrest. The fear is causing debilitating depression, and I really want to take care of this and pay back everything, I just think I should seek legal advice rather than throwing myself at the mercy of the police. Please someone tell me the first step, because I really didn't mean to become a criminal. I have never been good with money, and I have a habit of hiding from my problems but I want to make a new start by doing the right thing. Thanks for reading this rather long winded criminal history.
