I am sure there were extenuating circumstances too... But, the issue with me is the reduced bond. For a foreign citizen, is this normal in this state? In El Paso county? It’s BS if it is.

When something involves the death of someone, usually the bonds are set up around 10 grand. The life of this woman, who has supported the military for all her years as the wife of a military officer isn’t worth keeping a foreign citizen from running off?

I’m not sure she will, but then again, I’m thinking if it were an American in Mexico, they aren’t going ANYWHERE until the trial.

I agree. I was just trying to convey some additional information.

I was quite surprised by the $3000 bond!

The last company I worked for had a plant down in mexico. Corporate legal told people going down there to troubleshoot the line that if you were in an accident while driving, especially one that involved bodily injury, to flee the country as fast as you can and contact legal ASAP as soon as you were across the border.

So yea, you're right on.
