Does anyone know why he used a bail bond company? Seems weird. Does he really not have the $200,000?
What? What are you talking about? That's not how bail works. He doesn't need 200k.
The amount of your bail is the amount you owe if you don't appear in court, not the amount of the deposit, i.e. the amount of cash you need on hand. That's 10% of the total. If you have a 200k bail amount, you need 20 grand on hand, not 200 grand.
Hmm, that's not how they work in my state. You either pay 100% of the bail yourself, or you pay 10% to a bondsman and they cover the other 90%.
