Being in jail overnight and being there for a few months are alot different.
I hope you do get the opportunity to be under house arrest. That option wasnt there for me at the time.
From what I know about work release you dont get to go home. You just get to leave the jail to go to work and then at the end of the day oyu go back.
The perk is that you get to go outside.
Whatever happens I wish you the best.
Let us know how things are going.
