What can I do if I was put in jail and wasnt read my rights?

The effect of the failure to read someone their rights is that if they made an inculpatory statement while in custody in response to questioning then the statements are suppressed but that is all.

Of course, there is no absolute answer to your situation but there are two things you must keep in mind in making your decision:1- You have the right to a hearing where the state has the burden of proving that you violated your conditions. It is not your burden to prove that you didn't.  2- unfortunately their burden is preponderance of the evidence which is much lower than beyond a reasonable doubt. In other words it's easier for them to meet their burden on these type of cases. But they do still have the burden. It sounds like you have done great otherwise, especially on your restitution, it maybe a good idea to leave it up to the judge. That all depends of the judge you have, of course. Good luck, hope the best for you.
