Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 27/03/2025We've bailed out 31 people in 2025 alone. That's an average of one every three days since the new year. We know the criminal legal system will not stop but neither will we. 0125

Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 28/02/2025Our volunteers have posted 5 bails in the last 4 days. The criminal legal system never stops caging people and we won't stop freeing them. 030
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 24/02/2025handed $100 to the right person today and someone is going to get out of jail because of it. small thing, big impact. 010
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 11/02/2025Fun (not fun) bail fact! If you have a $1 dollar bail set at the Court of Common Pleas it costs $51 to pay because of a filing fee! 50x the price of freedom in BS fees! Also, feel free to send bad vibes to the judge who set a $1 bail. 082
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 10/02/2025We're active in 3 courts today and more tomorrow. People deserve better than what they're getting from the criminal legal system in Allegheny County. 020
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 08/02/2025busy calendar for next week. we're playing calendar tetris so that all these asks get met. maybe judges in Allegheny County could ease up a bit on the whole "pay for your freedom" thing 021
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 04/02/2025Thank you Addy! Today, Bukit volunteers were in multiple courts on behalf of half a dozen people and tomorrow we expect to do the same. Get in touch with us over DM or email re: donations - paper checks work but also your bank likely has a way to directly mail one using Bill Pay processes. 130

Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 28/01/2025Today a Bail Fund volunteer dropped everything during their afternoon to get down to court and pay something time-sensitive. All of our volunteers are the best frankly. 050
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 26/01/2025$100 and a long trip to court and back to get someone out of jail on a Sunday. Our volunteers are the best. 121
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 25/01/2025We paid quite literally $50 to get someone out of jail last night. A nice meal for two with tip but instead it's someone's entire freedom. 2404
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 24/01/20258a, in a court, paying a paltry sum to keep someone out of jail. Can't make it up - you can buy your freedom. 030
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 21/01/2025it's negative whatever out and our volunteers are still going to get someone free today. 030
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 20/01/2025We bailed people out through Trump I. Biden, and will continue to bail people out under Trump II. Any support you can give us to make that happen is welcome. 031
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 18/01/2025Shame on Magisterial Judge Tara Smith. Setting bail so egregious that one of our volunteers in the courtroom instantly left to go pay it. Holding someone with no criminal history, two jobs, and dependents on flimsy charges is despicable. 031
Bukit Bail Fund @bukitbailfund.bsky.social · 12/01/2025Three local buds were wrongfully arrested in Atlanta in 2023. Let’s help them sue Georgia cops for false arrest. The filings cost $400 each. Let’s try and raise $1200 to cover that expense for them. Venmo: @fuck-the-police (If you can’t do Venmo, get in touch and we’ll find another way.) 054
