29. posted $300,000 within 60 minutes...

The bail system is weird and corrupt. It may seem strange that she posted $300,000 within 60 minutes. I have assets/resources many times more, and I could not round up cash, bank statements, deeds, etc. for $300,000 in less than a day.

But for the 'right' people, the bail bondsman only wants 10%, $30,000. Only the wrong people need to come up with the full amount.

BTW, the bondsman will keep the 10% as his fee. Easy money.
