Medieval jailers were like prison guards in the medieval times. They had to keep watch on the prisoners and make sure they didn't escape. The jails back then were more relaxed. The jailers would let the prisoners out to beg for money because there was no other way to make money while in jail, but only if they shared part of the profit with the jailer.
