She was bailed out on Friday night by a representative of the show according to a report by MyFOXTampaBay.com.

The bail exceeded $30,000.

The spokeswoman for the “Dr Phil” show stated that staff members broke the rules and went too far in this case to get Mercades Nichols out of jail. It has been admitted though that in the past the staff of the show has gone out of their way to help those who would end up being future guests on the show.

According to a statement from show spokeswoman Terri Corigliano “These staff members have been spoken to and our policies reiterated. In addition, we have decided not to go forward with the story as our guidelines have been compromised.”
