Illinois eliminated cash bail on Monday, making it the first state in the nation to do so in a decision that brought heavy criticism.

The state Supreme Court ruled recently that a law abolishing cash bail was constitutional, the Hill reported, noting the law is titled the Illinois Pretrial Fairness Act.


quote:

The law in question passed in 2022, and Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) signed it. According to the article, it “will free from jail thousands of suspects accused of second-degree murder, kidnapping, burglary, robbery, and other violent crimes.”

“A group of local law enforcement agencies sued to stop the law from taking effect, and a judge declared the law unconstitutional. That decision was appealed to the Supreme Court, which overturned it,” the outlet stated, noting violent crime was increasing in Illinois.

Too bad it won't be the liberal elite who get the first bite of that giant shite sandwich. They'll be safely tucked away in their gated communities, their kids in private schools.

Good, let them learn.

This is what I'm speaking of when I say our country will need terrible things to happen in order to bring folks back to the center of sanity and logic.

Blacks taking orders from their daddy Soros. It's really a form of light slavery.

Well, if Illinois wants to be the home of the lawless then I propose other law fearing states start bussing their prison population to Illinois. That whole state can become the home of violent criminals feeding off each other.

Illinois about to put some distance on that lead over the other liberal shite holes for people leaving the state.

Appreciate the stats but it's strange how they classify one group as "slaughtered" and lump all others into "killed."

It's not like that on the website where the statistics came from. Whoever made the picture did that.

States doing what states want.

I'm fine with it.

The citizens of Illinois can change the way they vote if they don't like it. Otherwise, lie in the bed you made.

I support this. Some people need to stick half their body in the fire before they learn about getting burned.

I just don't support the Chicagoans who are already moving here in large numbers due to Tyson now owning Hillshire Brands.

Is there any possibility that this will result in some accused being given "no bail" and help in jail, instead of the possibility of a bail?
