If you live in NJ/NY no reason to call anyone. The worst that can happen is you are let go with a court date.There isn’t a bail option now. Either you are ordered held in jail for the duration of your trial or sent home. Usually only extremely violent crimes are ordered held.
Depending on where it happens and who does the bust. There are areas in Long Island that use do public shaming by putting mug shots on local news, billboards and websites. I haven't heard of it happening in many years but it could be that it's still happening it's just not news worthy anymore.

For NYC, DAT's (Desk Appearance Tickets) are the usual for first timers. No bail or remand for those. Unless the arrestee was a public servant, like the recent MTA worker, it generally doesn't make the news. But NYC has plenty of neighborhood rags that will report anything going on in their local Precinct.

A couple of exceptions where it may not be a simple DAT: 1) If you already have multiple convictions for Solicitation, and they need a judge to decide if bail is required. 2) The arrest was part of a raid. You might still get the DAT, but they will hold you in custody while they sort out the evidence. 3) They find drugs or weapons on you during the arrest.

...Never was caught in an AMP raid but was busted by my Ex and her sisters coming out of a Holiday Inn with a GF.... Quite a scene in the parking lot.... Does that count as a "bust"...LOL :eek:
If she was your Ex, who cares?

...4) They try to get you or the location on trafficking charges...i.e. Bob Kraft, owner of the Patriots.

@krideynyc A provider was arrested on the spot in NY last year as part of the investigation. She was not on the social media news, which was good news. She was RoR. I have additional details and it is not appropriate for me to share in public. I learned that it was not easy to get records from a NY Court when we were there to prepare defense for her. We made it with struggles!

The positive side not just for that provider but for any providers with no past records in NY are generally not on social media on case by case basis. The negative side was to get records before arraignment in NY.

Her B1/B2 Visa was revoked immediately! We succeeded for her to extend her stay in this country until court this year.

Benchmarking between NY and PA Court system depending on the jurisdiction, I find PA much easier to handle as opposed to NY, which explained why I learned what I learned.

The system handles mongers differently from providers, with income being the main factor. Since she was ROR'd, I'm guessing the charge(s) are low level Misdemeanors. Sorry to hear about her immigration situation. Hopefully, if found Not Guilty, her visa would be restored.

What time of day do you think is safest from LE? I can't imagine LE raiding at 3 AM.
They usually target, for this hobby, most collars for biggest news coverage. So, whenever the spa is not busiest, like 3AM.

Doesn't matter if they've been doing surveillance and have your face and/or car ID'd. As in the Kraft case.

Not sure if any of you exist, but just in case....

Was the charge a misdemeanor or felony?
Did you do time in a jail, or were you just booked, processed, and sent home? (I'm probably all saying that wrong)
Was your life ruined in some way (your picture in the paper, or you now have a "sex offender" jacket?)
What was the aftermath?
Any tips to not get arrested?

Uhh, and I guess any questions I didn't address.
Happened twice, both times in NYC. Both times the officer knocked, announced it was a raid , entered calmly, said that the party was over, get dressed and use the nearest entrance. That was it. That was twenty years ago.

Life was easy 20 years ago :( I miss old days. It made me sad thinking about old days. To release my sadness I will go to a provider at night.
