I mean. It should be anyways...
Like fuck Sean Combs, but most people stuck in jail are because they can't post bail. Or because of the American bail system, can't afford to pay 10% as essentially a fine.
Thousands of people deal with it every day there, it sucks we only talk about it when a rich person experiences it. But we still need to talk about.
Depends on the state. Illinois eliminated cash bail in 2023. You're only held pending trial if you're a threat to the community or a flight risk (to be determined at a hearing by a judge). A few other states have made changes to their bail laws to reduce the number of arrestees who are required to post cash bail as well.
The point is he doesn't want to be offed, the suggestion being he knows about Epstein level stuff, and the rich hate a snitch.
