Visiting from England and Charged with a Crime Here on Vacation in Orlando, Florida?
Many people come from England to enjoy the superb beaches and the tourist attractions that Orlando and Florida has to offer. Usually the pound is stronger than the dollar and a tourist from England can get a great vacation at a great bargain or value.

That is until you get caught up in a criminal arrest in Orlando for shoplifting, prostitution, battery, theft or drunk driving, which can now turn that value vacation into an expensive nightmare. The scenario you are involved in may look something like this:

• You are arrested by the police for an alleged crime you may or may not have committed.
• As a result of the arrest you are separated from your family and they have no idea where you are being held.
• You are taken to the Orange County Jail located in a bad part of town in south Orlando and are not told what you are being charged with or when you will be released.
• You manage to post a bond through a good friend and are actually being allowed to get out of jail, but are given a new court date to return. If you fail to return, a warrant will be issued and you will never be able to return to the United States of America.
• InterPol and similar agencies will have access to your record and see that you have a criminal charge here in Orlando, Florida.
• You have to come back to the US to court to try and resolve the case in a plea bargain, go to a jury trial or find other way to deal with the charges. You may be required to come back from England three or four times depending upon the judge's calendar.
