Here’s a follow-up about low bonds being set for gun offenders arrested in Chicago and Cook County. Of particular interest are the statistics quoted in the article that show how the bond amounts have dropped significantly while the amount of offenders released back into the community wearing Electronic Monitoring devices has increased dramatically since the adoption of bond “reforms” by the Chief Judge of the Cook County Circuit Court. A lengthy read, but an important one if you want to get a handle on what’s driving gun violence in Chicago.
Hopefully someone is getting the message.
