Can a person bond out of prison in CA? My fiancée has heard this is possible to do but has little info on the subject. He has a 22 yr sentence, served 18 for attempted murder. Is this possible for him? Some company from Staten Island, NY claims they can bond him out for $6,000.

Attempted Murder? Good luck trying... if was aggrivated littering maybe... Attempted Murder is a SERIOUS offense.

No. A bond is to ensure/guarantee a person will show up for trail or sentencing. Once convicted a person has to serve the sentence (including in Caifornia).

How did the NY company happen to get in touch with you? I'm in NY and if a company is making claims like this I'd like more info.

You were smart enough to check. I'll bet other people aren't and get "taken."

That's what I'm afraid of. Someone sent him some information on bonding out of prison. Recently he contacted this company directly and this is what they told him. I will ask him the name of this company and let you know asap. I don't think he understands much about what these bonds are for, which is why I've been googling it myself. Don't want him to get "taken". A company called NLP tried to lure him & I before, but when I researched there business with BBB I found claims that they'd taken thousands from families, filed useless court appeals, and were unsuccessful getting clients out. Now here I go again, lol.

As I said, I'm actually in NY and I'm a liability investigator - I'd sure like to know who is making these ridiculous claims.

I don't think it's possible - the various prisons screen mail and these "offers" get through?

Attempted Murder? good luck trying.....if was aggrivated littering maybe...Attempted Murder is a SERIOUS offense.

Yes it is, but not that uncommon for ex-gangbangers that end up at a party rival gangsters show up at too. Same old story in the hood... 2 rival gangs, same space, egos flare, things get out of hand, shots fired, police presence, attempted murder charges, years of life wasted.

And it could have all been very easily avoided... play with fire, then expect to get burned.

Hang with the wrong crowd and you are responsible for what appens... there were no innocent individuals in the example you gave.

Some people learn it before they get in trouble... some learn it only after they get in trouble... and some never learn it.

Yes... it was sent indirectly through a friend of his, but ISP in California allowed NLP to send him mail directly. We communicate through mail, but as soon as I get the name of this company I'll post it for you.

As noted, no it is not possible, in some areas a person on non violent crimes can bond out of county jail while they wait on a opening in a state prison, but it is very select few on that.

I don't allude to innocence nor guilt in that situation, but I do understand, coming from a neighborhood infested with gangs myself of low economic living conditions where many males had to join gangs for their own survival. I don't condone that lifestyle, but I know everyone where I come from wasn't as fortunate to get out of there and go on to college as I did. You are blessed, if you've never had to be in that situation or do things that negatively impacted your future like that. I agree that some learn before, some after, and some never, but I believe people can change if they so desire to. He has to atone for his actions, this we understand, I'm merely seeking the correct information so that companies who prey on people in his situation don't take advantage of him. If you have information on that issue great, but I'm not here to debate guilt, innocence, nor justice of his conviction. God bless.

Thank you for the information. O will be sure to pass it on to him.

Please still post the info -

Ah... but I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth, far from it in fact... I did know people like that... and I do know being poor isn't an excuse for criminal behaviour... that is a lack of morals. Blame them, and blame their parents... these are choices THEY made... and choices they alone are responsible for. Some of them are in prison and will never get out... some have done time and got out... and a few of them are no longer walking the earth as a result of their actions.

I know people who were far more poor than any of the people you describe... and they did not choose that path.

You get the answers you get... put the information out there, and its fair bait to be commented on. That's how sites like this work.


I am not asking how you managed to get engaged to someone who has been in prison for the last 18 years, and how you know for a fact what really happened because you likely weren't there at the time... but I could. Because its part of this thread... and things that might not appear to be related many times are in some way.

In any case... he's not getting out until they decide he's getting out, if he has no possibility of parole, it won't be until he's served the entire sentence, it he does, it won't be until the parol board decides he's ready. And that "bond" appears to be a scam for people suceptible to such offers... as most scams are.

Please still post the info -

I will, and thank you for the information as well. It is possible the help they offered is related to a different kind of bond assistance. As stated, he has very little information on this subject. I think it may be a misunderstanding on what he's heard of bonding and what details were discussed between the two parties. I'm seeking information based on what he's heard and what is true. That way he doesn't invest in something in error of what he thinks prison bonds are actually used for. Lol, have a great day.

And I get called in on these "scams" (if that is the case) AFTER the people have handed over the money, the person offering the "service" has pretty much printed out a form with changed names, submitted it to the Court and, of course, it's been denied.

I won't mention names or anything - of course - or specific situations but I'd just like to know what this is about.

Lol' ing... I enjoy your banter. I have not described any specific state of poverty, so there is no way to make an accurate assumption of anyone being poorer than another. I'm not disagreeing with your statement about it being a choice one makes despite their circumstances in life, but it seems to have touched a nerve.

I concur. People make the wrong choice, and I don't blame society for the decisions of individuals, though it seems to be the way You perceived my reply. I'm not saying he did nothing wrong, or shouldn't serve his time. I merely pointed out that I understood where he comes from and how these situations happen. No excuse rendered. Not every choice is a good one, and not every situation ends the same, but you can't deny that not everyone comes from a place where what's best for them is a luxury afforded... I don't think any kid dreams of being a gangbanger, prisoner, or a short life. Environment does play a part, or as the life long debate questions: "Nature vs Nurture?"

True my question is open to responses from any who choose to respond, but there is some who post to inform and others who post for their own reasons unrelated, such is the information highway. Sure you can ask me what you will in this thread, but I'm wise enough to know better than to answer a personal question on my relationship or its origins to not just a total stranger, but more importantly something unrelated to the topic I asked about. Anyone can ask, but that doesn't mean it will warrant an answer from me. But... thanks for an interesting conversation.

I'm in the same boat with you. He wrote me about this, so I decided to check on the information he's told me so far. I don't know anything about bonds with jails or prisons, but what he stated he was told and/or given on this matter seems questionable or faulty, which is why I'm looking into the validity of this. I will post it for you when I get more information on this company... what claims they are making, and who they are.

Lets just say... that touched a nerve because I have personally seen and known in my life far too many people use that as an excuse rather than face the facts they are the master of their own destiny. I.E. they drop out of high school then whine about having limited job possibilities.

And many who whine about being poor have many luxuries the truly poor only dream of having.

Hang around this site and you will see many yourself. Sometimes people choose not to see it until its pointed out to them. Read the posts about people crying about how unfair it is when they violate their parole by breaking the law, or the drunks and drug addicts trying to cheat their random tests and whining about how unfair it is they are subject to them.

Maybe your boyfriend is one of the few who really has learned his lesson... and keeps his nose clean when he does get out... and I do truly hope you can help him do it...

Statistically, the odds are against him doing it... but maybe he can beat those odds.

Oh, I know the type. I've grown up around, and heard enough deluded conspiracy theroies to last a lifetime. He and I are from the same"hood", I don't sugar coat the truth with him, but I know his potential. It is an uphill battle, but if he hadn't changed I wouldn't waste my time.

Like you, I don't like excuses. Only those who refuse to take responsibility for themselves utilize such a crutch, but knowing his past & family, the odds were against him from the beginning. Lucky he's learned to grow beyond it, and changed for the better, but he still has to pay his debt to society. Making a change for the better is great, but it doesn't change what happened then. Thanks for the well wishes... and I wish you the best.
