Can you bail someone out of jail if they murdered someone?

Yes. If they have been charged but not convicted, the person can petition the court to set a bond to allow them to be free while awaiting trial. If bond is denied, the defendant will remain in custody until trial. If the trial results in a conviction, the convicted would then serve out the sentence. If the trial does not result in a conviction, the convicted would then be released.
