Bail Bondsman Shoots Client in the Back, Aquitted Of Murder

[angelatc]

Here's the scene. The bail bondsman called the client into the office under the pretense of buying his car for her 17 year old son. The kid is in the office as part of the ruse. Her intent is to send him back to jail.



He is exiting through the window, because she was blocking the door.


How / why was she aquitted, you might ask? Turns out the jury didn't have any option except to convict for First Degree murder, which requires pre-meditation.

That's how they protect their own.

They should discriminate more those who they make their own. Civil lawsuit?

Stupid $#@!ing jury. It was pre-meditated.

Why on earth would you shoot your client? (I almost want to put an "LOL" here because of the stupidity there, but sad that the guy lost his life)

Won't she get the bond money now? If I understand things correctly, she posted his bond of $35,000 (for a fee). Now that he's dead, won't she get the 35,000 back? And keep the fee, of course.

I didn't hear her say anything about bail only "put these handcuffs on and I'll sit and talk to you in cuffs" Horrible outcome
