Indeed. The Republik of Ill-inois outlawed commercial bail bonds long ago. So it’s now one of the nation’s best places to be arrested, post “bail” to the state, and disappear....
The converse of that is it's almost impossible for IL residents to obtain a Bail Bond in another State. What Bondsman in his or her right mind is going to write a Bond for a resident where it is practically illegal for him to recover a bail jumper?
The result is that many Bondsmen will simply not post Bonds for any IL resident.
Another wonderful result is that the Cook County Sheriff Fugitive has about a 4 year backlog of warrants to serve.
Great system.
