What is the term for security given to release someone from jail?

Bail
Bond
Release Permit
Freedom Ticket

The correct answer is: Bail

Bail is the term used for security given to release someone from jail. This is the amount of money that must be paid to the court in order for someone to be temporarily released from jail while awaiting their trial. Bond, the other option that sounds similar, is usually the money paid to a bail bond company who then pays the bail for the defendant. Release permit and freedom ticket are not accurate terms for this security and are therefore incorrect.
