    Illinois bans certain tools to keep people safe, and now they open up the jails so the piece of shit criminals can run free with their stolen guns.
    With cash bail eliminated, these numbers in Chi-raq will go up, good luck to the folks in down state Illinois.

    Illinois Supreme Court upholds SAFE-T Act, cash bail abolished
    Pritzker released the following statement on the Supreme Court ruling:

    “I’m pleased that the Illinois Supreme Court has upheld the constitutionality of the SAFE-T Act and the elimination of cash bail. We can now move forward with historic reform to ensure pre-trial detainment is determined by the danger an individual poses to the community instead of by their ability to pay their way out of jail. My thanks to Attorney General Raoul’s office and the many people who worked tirelessly over the last months to defend these important reforms. I look forward to continuing to work with the General Assembly and our many other partners as we transition to a more equitable and just Illinois.”

    Ultimately, justices sided with Illinois Attorney General Kwame Raoul and his associates who argued from the first Illinois Constitution in the 1800s that bail was not rooted money, but certain conditions which allowed their release before trial. They also agreed that "separation of powers" weren't violated with lawmakers amending policy, but not that state's constitution which would have required your vote on a future ballot.


    All five Stateline counties were part of the lawsuit against ending cash bail, but now all five will have to follow the new policies, which also include which charges people can be released for ahead of their day in court.

    the opposition wasn't limited to Downstate - even the DNC States Attornies in the Collar Counties surrounding Chicago and the counties that included some of the bigger cities joined the lawsuits or voiced their opposition >>>>

    this law if just going to feed the turnstyle legal system that is already a huge problem - catch & release >>> waiting for the first case of a felony release returning to the victim later in the day and re-committing again ....
