> Yeah, I'm sorry, but as a citizen of the UK, the US system of bail and bail bounty hunters is just nuts. Which is somewhat ironic since the foundation of our bail system originates from UK common law and the limitations on it (e.g. the 8th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution) originate from limitations put into place after abuses of bail in the UK legal system.
