Bail is no different

Except it is. I had a $50,000 cash only bond one time and the person who came in with a cashiers check to get me released wasn't asked a single question. In fact they were going to bring it in in cash but the jail told them they would prefer it to be a cashiers check considering the amount of money involved. Not that it mattered, the judge decided to rescind my bond 2 days after I got out after the newspapers and TV made him look bad for letting an alleged attempted murderer out, he then put a bench warrant out for my arrest and after I was back in custody he changed it to a million dollar cash only bond, then to no bond at all. Of course the attempted murder was finally dropped after 18 months of sitting in county since I didn't actually do it. They hit me on a weapons charge instead, which I plead guilty to, not as part of a plea agreement either, I just plead guilty because I wanted the whole thing done with and behind me and I figured I would get the presumptive sentence for my crime, which I already basically had in, but they basically maxed out my sentence and I got sentenced to 7 1/2 years (out of a possible 8, presumptive on my felony was 4) instead. In conclusion the entire justice system is so broken that it literally still gives me nightmares. There are no good cops anymore, a good cop wouldn't stand by and watch stuff like this happen, and the entire court system doesn't actually care about a single person, they have become a business whose only concern is generating revenue for whichever type of government they are representing, and the prison system is so horribly devoid of any type of actual rehabilitation that it actually does the opposite and exposes people like me to a side a crime I would have never come into contact with if it had not been for prison. The first times I ever did heroin or meth were both while I was in the penitentiary. The first time I ever saw a guy get stabbed or beaten to the point where I didn't know if he was going to live was while I was in the penitentiary, I don't even know what type of person I was before I went in anymore just because I had to act a certain way every waking moment, literally every single moment of my life just so I could survive for years and in the process I have honestly forgotten who I was before. One of the only things that helped me was having been in the Marines prior to my offenses so I knew I could mentally deal with just about anything that life has to throw at me.
