Amy Leigh asked:


I recently paid $500.00 on a $5000.00 bond. Now the bondsman dropped the bond so he has to stay in jail. He told me that I do not get my money back.. it hasnt even been 24hrs!

Is this wrong? I feel like I should get my $500.00 back. But I have no idea how bond works. I need help please.
I am in Florida. Thanks.

This man hit a 16 year girl and killed her. He left the the accident and did not render aid. He had no DL no insurance no nothing.
The police had to track him down and arrest him. Now they are saying if he gets free on bond they are going to deport him back to Mexico. He kills someone gets out of jail and all he gets is deported back to his country just to be able to sneak back over here and be a free man. See below.
Felipe Manuel Sanchez who is being held at Lew Sterrett on charges of failure to stop and render aid to 16 year old Garland teen Jessica Hopper recently had his bail bond lowered. The charge is a third degree felony. Originally he was being held on $50,000 but on Oct. 26, a judge at his court hearing had the bond cut in half to $25,000.
According to Deputy Raul Reyna of the Dallas County Sheriffs Department, if Sanchez does post bond he will be turned over to US Immigration officials and be deported back to his home county of Mexico. I don’t get it????
What’s your thoughts???

I’m on parole and my ex girlfriend says she is going to have me charged with assault over a fight we had 2 days ago. If she goes through with this would I be able to make bail bond in the normal way or would they keep me in jail?
She is only making the allegations it isn’t that they have been proved.

The row started with her having a go at me saying I had been smoked a cigarette around my son which I hadn’t and then we got into a verbal row and she was in my face and I just pushed her away so I could get away from it and calm things down. She is thereatening to make it sound bad but that ws all that happened.

Lexis asked:


What is the difference between Bil and Bail Bond? If they say bail is set at 50,000 bondable, what does that mean? Explain the 10% situation? Does that mean we only have to pay 5,000 and the rest the Bondsmen pays? or do we have to pay the whole 50,000 along the way?
