This is seeded from a British newspaper because I think it is instructive to see how we're being viewed internationally. But from the Salt Lake Tribune's coverage:

He was arrested in July and booked into Salt Lake County jail, and a judge raised Peterson’s bail from $750,000 to $2 million. ...

All Out Bail Bonds confirmed that the company had posted bond for Peterson’s release.

The most interesting question: How did he get the money to do that?

ps ... Check out the photo of Utah's shame, Jason Chaffetz alongside Mr. Peterson. What is the best description of that grin on Chaffetz?
