\nBail Reform Rhetoric: All Talk and No Data
\n<\/a><\/h3>\n

We have all heard the sad stories about poor people being locked up in jail all because they can’t afford a bail bond. We have heard the stories about the research that shows that you can just release people from jail with no accountability and your communities will be safer. We have all heard that alternatives to secured bail are more fair and more equitable. With all that being said, what we haven’t seen through all the stories and the promises is the data that supports them…or what we like to call…the truth.<\/p>\n

\n<\/a><\/h3>\n

We hate writing about it, but if we don’t, no one will.

\nOklahoma: Don\u2019t Confuse Broken Hearings With a Mandate to Expand Pretrial Services
\n<\/a><\/h3>\n

Oklahoma lawmakers are currently looking to reform the state\u2019s pretrial system. Recent reporting from The Frontier and KOSU has uncovered a potential issue in Oklahoma County surrounding their first appearance process. According to the article, some defendants are given barely any time in their initial court appearance. Some last less than 20 seconds long. Due to full dockets and fewer resources, judges are forced to speed through these hearings, often failing to inquire about a person\u2019s flight risk or personal circumstances.<\/p>\n
