Keep a record of your phone calls to the DA. If there is time write a letter to the DA and keep a copy of it. If they come back to arrest you don't worry. The judge should not impose any penalty. Should the court indicate that you will be some sort of penalty ask for an attorney. Also request that they take home, as you have no way to get there.
