Yea, I'm saying 750k is low for 2nd degree murder.

I used to work in the preliminary arraignments, I would expect at least a mil here, where brutal murders with guns got 2mill+ .

I don't think I ever saw someone not get bail actually. 75k bail sounds cheap as hell for someone who just murdered a man in cold blood. Doesn't seem to put the communities interest in perspective at all.

Yeah, I’m getting older now and those 55+ gated communities are starting to look pretty damn good. I’ve been struggling with the streets of Philadelphia for 30+ years (adult years) and it’s no longer fun. I imagine it’s nice if you can afford to live in a wealthy community but anything outside that can get pretty bleak at times. I understand why so many fled cities in the 70’s. It could happen again.
