He should be found guilty first before lifetime incarceration, but I agree, the bail is like a drop in the bucket.

It might be helpful for all to have the added context that Joaquin Garcia, and his church, is "non-trinitarian." ;) I'm not sure to what extent that might 'mean' something in the wider scope of consideration, but hey! There it is! Either way, I do so hate Organized Crime.
