In cases in which law enforcement officers believe a crime was committed, but they have been unable to effectuate an arrest, they will often seek out a warrant for the person's arrest.
This process typically involves the officer presenting information to a local prosecutor and judge who will then authorize the issuance of a warrant.

An attorney may be able to assist you in determining whether there is a scheduled or pre-determined bond for your case so you know how much money you need to immediately bond yourself out of jail.
