Christmas is almost here and everyone is excited for the holiday season. The holidays are supposed to be a time to take a break from work or school to enjoy some rest and quality time with family and friends.

Unfortunately, the holiday season is no exception when it comes to the law. When mistakes happen and a law ends up broken, your loved one may end up behind bars during one of the most beloved days of the year and end up missing out on spending Christmas Eve or Christmas Day with the family. Being in jail is unfortunate enough without your loved one having to miss out on valuable time with their beloved friends and family. This can be especially bad if this loved one has children waiting for them at home.

Teaching them a ‘lesson’

Some family members may believe it serves them right to spend Christmas Eve or Christmas Day in a North Carolina jail overnight and that it will ‘teach them a lesson’. After all, they did break the law.

However, what they may not realize is that when a person is in custody the courts have up to three business days to get them in front of the judge. If someone ends up being arrested on Christmas, they may not be able to get to court until the following Monday or Tuesday. This could put your loved one at risk of missing work, miss school, or other important events that could put other parts of their life in jeopardy.

Putting them and their family at risk

Even if you believe that they deserve to be punished for their crime, missing out on work or school won’t be doing either of you any favors, especially if their family is depending on their paycheck to eat and pay bills.

A lost job or failing school is an absolutely terrible present to give over the holiday season, especially over a single mistake. We all do things we aren’t proud of, but it shouldn’t cost them their future or the future of their children. After all, it is one thing for children not to have any presents to open for Christmas, but it is another for them to not have any food in the kitchen to eat or to lose a roof over their head. A night or two in jail can do exactly that.

A scary experience

That aside, being in jail can be a terrifying experience for any person. Whether this is there first time behind bars or they have ended up here before, it never loses it is stressful atmosphere and the fear of not being able to be with those they love most. Regardless of their irresponsibility in disobeying the law, they don’t deserve to have to spend their holiday season behind bars. If anything, they deserve compassion and empathy during this season of goodwill.
