Pritzker Purge Law

For the sake of racial politics,  Illinois has done away with cash bail.  Cash bail is one of the few portions of the criminal justice system that worked well, with judges using cash bail to hold dangerous defendants and/or frequent flyers.  Now if a Judge deems a Defendant, except in a handful of crimes, to be a danger to the public or a flight risk, the overburdened court system must hold a swift evidentiary hearing to determine if a defendant is dangerous or a flight risk.  This trial before a trial, puts an impossible burden on prosecutors.  We will have a revolving door system where defendants are released to wreak havoc, defendants who have no intention of returning to court for subsequent proceedings in their cases.   Madness, pure and simple.
