    A warrant is issued for your arrest (warrants never die) and when you are located and picked up you can serve additional prison time.

    Hello soul:

    THEY, on their own, will NOT work with you. They're not built that way. They're cops. They want your butt in jail. That's what cops do.

    The only way you're going to get ANY consideration, if there's any to get, is to have a lawyer represent you to the authorities.

    They will give you as much cooperation as you gave them - now that they've had to look for you that has dropped from negligible to none.

    Yes, about your only chance of not a lot of jail time, is get an attorney, have them arrange for you to turn yourself in.
    Most likely you will go to jail for the probation violation till the court hearing,

    If not, very possible ever how many years your probation was for / 1 year ? 3 year ? That is how long you go away if they have their way
