Illinois becomes first state to ELIMINATE cash bail: Democratic Gov. J.B Pritzker celebrates court clearing radical new policy that could free more criminals before trial
2023-07-19
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Illinois' Democratic Gov. J.B. Pritzker celebrated Tuesday when his state became the first in the nation to eliminate cash bail

  • He said detainment will now be determined by the 'danger an individual poses' as opposed to 'their ability to pay their way out of jail'

  • Critics argue cash bail prevents dangerous criminals from returning to the streets while awaiting trial
