If bail is set at $200k, he only has to pay 1/10 to get out .... right?
He's probably got that much ($20k) in pocket change, every day.
And if they really think he'll leave the country and want to keep him around, there would have been NO BAIL. So .... they WANT him to post bail and do SOMETHING that they can use to say "see, he's guilty."
That being said, it wouldn't surprise me if he stayed in jail .... so long as his SS detail could assure his safety.
I think this would be if he uses a bail bond.....where somebody else puts up the full amount. Which is for poor folks. It will look bad.
This is info is from NY State
What is Bail? When a defendant (the “principal” or “arrestee”) is held before trial, the court may release them under conditions known as “bail.” Bail usually includes a payment to the court, which is typically given back at the end of the case if the defendant follows court orders.
What is a Bail Bond? If the defendant (or their friends or family can’t afford the full bail amount, they can use what is known as a “bail bond.” There are several types of bail bonds, such as insurance company bonds, where a defendant’s friends or family sign a contract with a licensed bail agent who will pay for them. These contracts are usually called “indemnity agreements” or “bail agreements,” and the friends or family that sign them are called “indemnitors.”
That depends on how the bail is set. If a cash-only bond then the whole amount. The other way would to go through a bondsman but I doubt PDJT would bother with that since he's, like you said, probably got 200K in pocket change.
