 that's *$*++$ up. You need to sue somebody.
 
I'm not so sure you can be compensated because well....that's how the system is supposed to work. While awaiting trial, you can legally be held, should the judge feel it is needed.

Now if you were wrongfully CONVICTED and did time, only to be exonerated later....then yeah, you would be entitled to compensation.

Glad you stuck to your guns and it worked out how it should have though. I think there are probably more people than we hear of who cop a plea knowing they're innocent b/c the thought of doing major time is scary as hell.

damn that sucks.

i think you can sue the state, or someone, because they locked you up. i'm not sure how the law works down there.

the people that accused you of the robbery should be punished, no questions asked.

keep us posted

That's fine, but my thinking is that it's the police departments duty to investigate a crime before completing an arrest and a charge. Now obviously the Judge doesn't know specifics of what the crime or situation are, but if I'm already on bail and complied with the demands of the court by showing up on the court date, how can they now increase bail with no new stipulations, in example, I was re-arrested, caught a new charge, didn't show up to court. Guilty until proven innocent ?
