i know cops in lakewood that do drug arrest like this by themselves without being on the street crime unit.
What does “no ten percent” mean?
it means the whole bail has to be paid
i meant to say the bail has to be paid in cash
Means they need to pay the full amount to be bailed out. Sometimes you pay 10% of the bail and get out of jail.
They can not post just 10 percent of the bail. If they want bail they need to pay the entire amount upfront.
Thank G-d no officers were hurt in the raid.
not illegals! do we ban there family’s from Lakewood? where are all the illegal bashers ?
