A celebrity-backed woke bail fund has shuttered after being sued for freeing a serial criminal who tried to murder an Asian waiter just six days later.

The owners of Aztec Bail Bonds also spoke with 8News Las Vegas and said they are skeptical of the process and the mission.

'I don't think they care and truly don't care because some man nearly lost his life,' Lilia Ceballos said.

'We pick and choose who we want to do business with. We just don't bail out habitual problem cases,' Manny Ceballos told the outlet.

Since February 2021, The Bail Project has released 51 individuals in Las Vegas, according to a spokesperson.

91 percent of those who have been bailed out have returned to the court date, the spokesperson said.

Deputy General Counsel for The Bail Project, Katie Poor, said their organization is committed to providing resources and freeing those who are innocent until proven guilty.

'We provide free bail assistance and what we call community release with support which includes rides to and from court, court notifications and we attempt to navigate services in the community based on our clients' self-identified needs.'

It took just one lawsuit to shut these BLM loving idiots down.

This is only their Las Vegas chapter for the organization.
Meaning they are continuing to pull thugs out of jail in other cities.
I’ll bet Danny Glover is the ‘brains’ behind this trio venture. Danny was first known as starring in movies with Mel Gibson. Years later, he was later well known for associating with communists in Venezuela and elsewhere.
I think actor Sean Penn went on some marches ‘for peace’ with Danny. John Legend is probably being used to attract more money from entertainers of his generation. Old fools tend to like younger fools.

This thug is the type the democrat leftists want walking free. I think it gives them a thrill to know they have help to be released a violent criminal who is almost guaranteed to harm others once back on the streets.

They live in gated communities with security. They can watch the chaos while safely guarded. Muck like the characters they report on or play in movies and on the “big screen”.

I think they enjoy it.

But he can't be guilty until a jury of his peers find him guilty!

The man shot 7 times will never fully recovrt from the damage this vicious animal did to him;
The group, which seeks to disrupt the cash bail system, paid the $3,000 bond set by Las Vegas Justice Court Judge Amy Chelini.

Six days after he was released from jail, Gaston-Anderson walked into the Shanghai Taste restaurant and shot at Wang 11 times.

Wang said earlier this he was struck seven times, telling Las Vegas’ News 3 in March that bullets punctured one of his lungs and his stomach.

Miraculously, the waiter survived and has undergone rehabilitation for his injuries.

‘I can still vividly remember when the first police officer on the scene immediately helped me stop the bleeding on my neck,’ Wang said in an interview. ‘And helped me put pressure on other ones.’

I’ll bet they would never consider bail for a J6er who is in jail but hasn’t even been convicted of anything yet.

And once again, the judge who SET the bail walks away accountability-free.

That's the real problem. No one ever sues bail-bondsmen (except over prisoners who skipped bail).

I try not to profile anyone in public. But when I see a man looking like that, the hairs in the back of my neck stand up.

Couple? Try 70. Nat was a icon in the 50s. Now look what we are left with. The black culture has broken down to this subhuman class that thinks there is no punishment for their actions.

We need laws to allow suing judges and prosecutors personally for their malfeasance.
