How can you make bail with limited resources?
She has no resources and I work making a little over minimum wage. Is there anything I can do to help my daughter get out??? I mean who could come with that much money?? Must be election year for the judge.....
Bail is set based on the trustworthiness of the offender to report to their appointed court date, the nature of the crime, public safety from the offender and their criminal history. There is a baseline that the magistrates go by for setting a bond amount. There must be some serious charges or elements to this detention for a high bond. We can assure you it has NOTHING to do with election time, that passed a month ago.
