Presumably she's not a good bet not to run.

So, Christ shows up in July. Lori, as one of the gods prepping the 144,000, needs to be free for... what? What is her task? What does she need to do to get everything ready for the big day?
Well no, she's made it very clear that she will be buggering off in July!

Make sure her kids are heaven bound.

In retrospect, Hawaii is probably a safer place to be at the end of the world than right next to Yellowstone.

I forget -- aren't the seas supposed to rise?

I forget as well, there's a lot going on there. Most of it appears to be shrooms, but a third of the earth burning is a little too on point.

That or nobody is willing/able to put up $1M worth of collateral for the bond company.

Volcano and sea rising vs caldera? Seems like a wash.

Safe places on doomsday probably needs its own thread.

If the Yellowstone caldera cuts loose I'm not sure that living on or next to any volcano is going to be a very safe choice.

Yup. Bounty hunters are expensive.

As in, she simply cannot accrue the minimum assets the bond companies want (and was perhaps trying to negotiate a lower amount) as opposed to the companies simply telling her off because she's too high a risk even with said-same assets in hand.

As in, no bondsman will bond her out because she can't find anyone to put up $1M worth of collateral for her.

Possibly. I think we're all on the same page here anyway.

Well, apparently it isn't because the collateral couldn't be met, but rather risk (in one case, allegedly principle).

The prosecution and defense have requested the preliminary hearing originally scheduled for March 18-19 be postponed until May 7-8, and Lori's attorneys are requesting a new judge for the case.

... Although apparently one might be able to go directly through the court for bail if one has the collateral?

I don't know about Idaho, but in many jurisdictions a bonding agency can demand collateral on their own as part of their agreement with the defendant. I suspect that the arrangement must be riskier for them (collection more difficult?) than when the State does it, or the defendant would just use that collateral with the State for their bond and forego paying the cut the bonding agency keeps.
This turns up something I found a bit surprising. Apparently there is a statute in which permits one no-fault disqualification of a judge by a defendant.
I wonder how common that is in other states.
I also wonder why the Lori defense team wants one this time.
