Jenelle's lawyer says the MTV star denies any wrongdoing.

Despite her smiling mug shot from Monday evening ... Evans appeared pretty upset during today's appearance. Evans was released from custody after posting $1,000 bond. She's due back in court on Feb. 6th.

Last week, the 20-year-old was arrested for allegedly making harassing phone calls and threatening her ex-roommate. On top of all that, Jenelle is still on probation for beating up some chick last year.

Jenelle's two-year-old son is currently in the custody of her mother.

Amber Portwood Jailhouse Letter to Brother: Cops Are Afraid I'll Shiv Someone

Published | Updated

Police don't even trust Amber Portwood with a pen -- this according to a letter the "Teen Mom" wrote from inside jail, claiming cops are only willing to give her a special flexible writing utensil ... designed to prevent stabbings.

Prisoner-proof pens are pretty standard issue inside the clink ... but according to Amber's letter -- obtained by TMZ -- she's still freaked out people think she's a danger to society ... and she'll end up in prison.

Amber writes, "I don't think I'll ever take this sh*t for granted. I'm really scared I'm going to prison ... All I think about is Leah and how she needs a ro-model (sic)."

She adds, "I am a good person and I pray that I can change my life."

Amber wrote the letter to her brother last month -- after she was thrown in an Indiana jail for drug possession and failing to provide a urine test (a stipulation of her probation).

She's scheduled to appear in court on January 27 for her probation violation hearing. She faces two years behind bars.

Amber Portwood Happy New Year ... You're HOMELESS!!

Published | Updated

Amber Portwood's landlord is tossing her out in the street -- a fact the "Teen Mom" star might care more about ... if she hadn't been cooling her ass in jail for the last 17 days.

The company that owns Amber's rented home in Anderson, Indiana filed notice with the court yesterday that it wants her out ASAP.

According to the docs, Portwood somehow violated her lease agreement -- no specifics are listed -- and the landlord delivered a "notice to vacate" on Dec. 20 ... the day AFTER Amber got hauled off to jail for alleged probation violations.

Portwood's attorney tells TMZ he didn't know about the notice, so couldn't comment. If Amber misses a Jan. 25 court date she could be evicted immediately.

2012 ... not looking up for Amber.

'Teen Mom' Amber Portwood Worst New Year's Eve EVER!

Published | Updated

There were no streamers, no confetti and no countdown to midnight for "Teen Mom" star Amber Portwood this year -- because TMZ has learned the jail she's currently in didn't celebrate New Year's Eve ... at all.

According to law enforcement sources, Madison County Jail in Indiana did not do anything to mark the New Year. We're told visiting hours on Saturday were only from 7:00-7:30 PM, but Portwood had no visitors on the schedule.

But don't worry, Amber wasn't alone. Our sources tell us that due to overcrowding, Amber has been transferred out of the cell she shared with one other inmate ... and into a room with several other inmates -- whose convictions range from probation violation to dealing a controlled substance.

And if you think Amber just put her head down and caught some shut eye on NYE, think again -- as part of moving into that large room, instead of a bed ... she slept on a vinyl mattress that sits on a concrete floor.

2012 can only be an improvement.
