text: whats a good way to raise money to get someone out of jail? i need to get $1500 to get them out?   no, i would assume you mean to make bail, not pay for an escape.  but also remember if they make bail, in most places they can not use a pubic defender, since making bail shows they have or had the money to hire thier own attorney.  work second job,  sell your computer, tv, sterio.
