DON'T post critical information including future destinations or ports of call; future operations, exercises or missions; deployment or homecoming dates.
DO be smart, use your head, always think OPSEC when using texts, email, phone, and social media, and watch this video: "Importance of Navy OPSEC."

I need advice/help - my sailor is UA from San Antonio
On Saturday I learned that my son (who was recently transferred to San Antonio from Pensacola) went UA, made his way back to Pensacola to see his girlfriend sometime in the past few days and on Friday was arrested and is in jail. He has not called me.
Will the Navy come get him, or leave him there? Is there someone at the Navy I can talk to to find out what to do? The Sheriffs office is not being very helpful.

How did you learn this? He must have called someone. Or the girlfriend talked to someone.

His girlfriend texted my brother who called me. She won't talk to me.

Check out the county court records website.
They don't send out a dragnet for UA sailors, he must have been stopped for some infraction to be arrested by the Sheriff, and you can bet the goverment will come for him and hopefully capt mast would be the worst.

Yes, unless he committed a serious offense, the Sheriff would hand him over to the Navy as soon as possible.

"The Navy" might not even know where he is unless he has called his command and informed them. His command cannot just get him out of jail, he must go through due process in the civil courts. If he has not informed his chain of command, it will simply get worse.
There is not much you can do. I am sorry and know it is frustrating.
Cryptodad, I guess most of the sailors I knew who were arrested were held for serious crimes. We never got the one first class back.
