It sound like to me that you will have to contact the trust administrator for any financial assistance. If the administrator ok's it, then a bondsman can be hired and he would be released from jail upon posting of the bond. In regards to hiring another attorney, again, you would have to get approval from the trust administrator which seems unlikely given the information in your email. Further, given your friends addiction to meth, the best possible thing for him maybe to remain in jail. One it would ensure his ability to get clean and stay clean as well as get him credit for time served which could help during plea negotiations and at sentencing depending on the charges he is facing as well as his criminal history score.
