Standard arrangement with private bail-bondsmen. Been that way for about a hundred years.

Fine and dandy. So to play that game, set bail at $1.5 million with him having to meet $150K. Meet that bail.

Shouldn’t have set bail on the child rapist. I fault the correctional/judicial ‘system’ in two states, plus Huckabee for this terrorist/killer to be loosed as he was.

And suppose that the private bail bondsman had said, "Give me 15k and I'll cover your 1.5 million"? Or suppose that his family mortgaged their house and did put up 150K?

Do you want to intervene in the private bail bond business? Or is it the constitutional guarantee against excessive bail that you want to revisit?
