What were the good things that Richard iii?
He introduced bail into England in 1485. :) Bail allowed those convicted of a non-serious crime, e.g. theft, to pay a perscribed amount of money so they could be released during the time before their trial, because Richard believed it was not fair for an innocent person to stay in prision before their trial. The bail you payed was no longer valid if you travelled abroad in the time you were released. If you were convicted for a serious crime, e.g murder, and the authorities thought you could commit the crime again, the option of bail was not given. Sorry, but Richard III did not introduce bail into England. He enacted bail reforms, as had kings before him, but bail itself existed centuries before Richard III became king.
how do you know who posted your bail?
If the bail is paid through the bail bonding agency, contacting the bail bondsman responsible should provide you with the information. However, if the person providing the fund and collateral is not related to the inmate, the bail bondsman may not reveal the identity for the reason of privacy. For example, a criminal organization may wish to bail its agents through a proxy, without revealing its identity. If you are the victim of a crime and are interested in whether the crime perpetrator has been bailed, you may contact the police or district attorney's office. Lastly, for other cases where family members may have posted the bail, contact the clerk responsible for your case at the courthouse should be sufficient.
