to post a bail bond
I think it sounds better to say "post" and "bail", than just "to provide bond". The word "post" and "bail" are critical in this field, aren't they?
In your sentence I'd say "...relieved of "posting a bail bond"...
In your sentence I'd say "...relieved of "posting a bail bond"...
Example sentence:
A bail bond is a written guarantee that a defendant will attend all further Court proceedings. Bail is set by a court to make sure that a defendant will appear and also to offer the community protection if the defendant is considered dangerous.

: Now with Joe I was just joking, but when you say "BAIL bond", that refers specifically to getting out of jail, and your reference refers to that also. Check the CONTEXT, it has nothing to do with getting out of jail.
