It's good to see so many people willing to turn on their own family.

Kind of a conundrum there with that statement.
Not talking about the OP's family what so ever, or their situation, but sometimes a family member is such a POS that the family is better off without their presence anymore.
What causes them to be like that can come from a myriad of issues which is another thread in the making if somebody wants to go that route.

And the brother shall deliver up the brother to death, and the father the child: and the children shall rise up against their parents, and cause them to be put to death

Exactly, the family can face financial difficulties from posting bail if the family member does not show up for a court date.

In some cases - I'm thinking wealthy families here - the loss of the bail might be, to them, worth it if the accused flees to a country with no extradition treaty.

If they don't make you surrender the passport.

Screw the bail bondsman, they're almost worst than the criminals.

Really? Without bail bondsman, every one would just sit in jail and clog up the jails until their court dates. Weeks, months, years. Screw them? Go for it, you'll never get another bond written again then. Bondsmen provide a service, for a fee, they do not lose any money unless the person they wrote the surety bond on doesnt show for court, and then its usually the surety or insurance company who writes their bonds who loses the money, unless the bondsman is the owner and alot arent then theyre usually just employees who dont have any financial interest at all in the business. But if its a big one then its on them and their jobs on the line to get their people back and in front of the court. The family, wife or whoever helped get the person bonded out- if its a big bond then it didnt get written without collateral- theyre the ones who get screwed, they will lose all of that collateral. Its likely that a large percentage of the people who are helping bond people out of jails are not rich and cant afford to lose their stuff.

It isn't turning on them. It's making them man up and face reality. I'd rather deliver my brother safely to jail then have some jack booted, trigger happy bounty hunter kick in his door in the middle of the night. Again the reality is the sooner you deal with this stuff the sooner they can move on.
