well it has been proven over and over

again that uh cash bail is not really a

deterrent for somebody not appearing in

court what is a deterrent is the

conditions of bond simply if somebody

cannot afford to pay the cash bond that

the judge imposed doesn’t mean that if

they somehow get the money it doesn’t

mean that they’re going to run away

money never stopped somebody from

running away it is the conditions of

bond that really take care of uh or

alleviate that fear placing somebody on

electronic monitoring uh barring

somebody from going to a certain place

requiring somebody to turn in their

passport these are the conditions that

judges these days can oppose in order to

assure that somebody’s not going to run

away now somebody is gung-ho running

away then they’ll run away but then they

the reason why that the state can file

these verified petitions seeking

detention if they believe that

individual poses that grade of a Flight

Risk and the judge will take that into

consideration and certainly a judge can

impose that condition or say I don’t

believe that the individual that I don’t

believe that there are conditions of

release that can alleviate that flight

risk for example or that danger to the

community

Factor
