Bonds and Bails are the way courts ensure suspects come to court and deal with the charges at hand. If the Judge sets a bond or a bail on someone, you have the right to bond or bail him out of jail.
Bonding or Bailing an inmate out of jail is fairly easy to do.Call the jail at (509) 397-5585 and ask the Officer what the bond or bail total is on the person you are trying to bond or bail out. If an Officer tells you the charge is "Cash Bail Only", that means you can not use a bondsman.
If you decide to bail someone out of jail, you need to come to the Jail and present the necessary amount of cash of the bail. There is no such thing as 10%! When you bail someone out, you will pay the full amount. We do not accept personal checks. It must be cash, credit card, or certified check.
If you decide to bond someone out of jail, you need to contact a Bondsman . You can look in the link for bondsmen on this site or look in the phonebook under "Bonds". A bondsman will require a payment for their services. Their service charge is usually around 10%-15%. They will need to know the charges and bond amounts for the person you are bonding out of jail.
