Every day, tens of thousands of people get booked into jails all across the country for crimes both big and small. "Booked: First Day In" is their side of the story.
First-timers and frequent flyers get booked, including the son of a deputy who is charged with stealing a dog that he's been caring for.
A career criminal and first-time arrestee bond in custody; an expecting father faces the prospect of missing his child's birth, and a 20 year-old aspiring model gets a taste of the inside of a jail cell for the first time.
In the realm of arrests and jail bookings, every person detained shares a universal longing for freedom and a return to their home.
Life lessons are learned when a first-timer and folks familiar with the system get booked. A woman struggles to deal with her husband's health issues and gets a DWI.
One wrong move could get anyone booked in; like a mom in Virginia Beach who got a DWI while driving to her local 7-11, or a Northern California gearhead who gets spotted by a helicopter after allegedly doing a burnout at a car meet.
