Does everyone receive a bail bonds?

It's true that not all defendants are eligible for a bail bond. In certain counties the bail schedule deems such cases as MURDER - with special circumstance as in-eligible / NOT BAILABLE. In most cases if the court also believes a defendant is a fight risk or a risk to the community it can elect to deny bail. This type of practice is common in most courts and often used when a defendant shows a consistent disregard for the court schedule.

How do you fight a involuntary manslaughter charge?

Fighting an involuntary manslaughter charge typically involves challenging the prosecution's evidence and their interpretation of intent and negligence. A defense attorney may argue that the defendant acted without criminal intent or that the actions were a result of an accident rather than recklessness. Additionally, presenting evidence that supports the defendant's character or a lack of prior offenses can be beneficial. Ultimately, the goal is to create reasonable doubt in the minds of the jurors.
