Q: What happened to my personal property when I was arrested and how do I get it back?

A: If you were booked into jail, the police probably took your money and any personal property that you had in your possession and inventoried it for safekeeping.  They likely gave you a copy of the inventory.  When you are released from jail or when your criminal case is concluded, then any money and personal property that was not seized as evidence can be returned to you.  You should review the list of property given to you before you sign it to make sure that everything that was taken from you is on that list.
