Because rich people are connected and have dirt on powerful people.
- sacnoradhq 4y agoI would say the rich part is all that matters. If you have assets to put up equivalent to the cash bail amount or get a bail bond, then no one cares. If you don't have zillions, then you're stuck in pauper's prison (pretrial detention) like some 800k people. The US has the highest incarceration rate on the planet except Seychelles.
