7 Brief Fundamentals of Bail Gregory J Donat Former Judge Tippecanoe County, Indiana Superior Court
8 Brief Fundamentals of Bail Purpose of Bail Assure the offender s return to court Protect public safety Current System is Problematic Assumes that charge is equal to risk Fails to consider each individual arrestee s risk Posted money is not related to public safety Those with money or able to negotiate a deal with a bondsman are released without supervision
9 Impact of Current Bail System One-half of the highest risk defendants are released Many low and medium risk defendants remain in custody Pretrial detention of low and medium risk defendants increases their likelihood of recidivism (more victimization)
10 Pretrial Reform: Risk Assessment What it is: Data driven Research informed Objective aid to decision-making How does it work: Data sample is analyzed Identifies and weights most predictive factors Puts defendants into risk categories (low, medium, high) Improves predictability and reduces unintended bias What it isn t: A replacement for judicial discretion
11 Pretrial & Victims Rights Movements Common Ground Share important element of safety for victims/survivors, defendants and the community Pretrial period can be one of the points of greatest danger Two movements can bring respective knowledge, skills and evidence-based strategies to develop individualized terms of release that promote safety
12 Victim/Survivor and Advocate Input Safety concerns and recommendations to address them Reliable plan and conditions of supervision Comprehensive monitoring of potential risk
13 Defendants Appearance at Hearings Important predictor of future ability to comply with: Court orders and no contact orders Treatment plans Behavior modification
14 Understanding Defendants Failure to Appear Two types: Flight from jurisdiction Simple irresponsibility Most cases involve simple irresponsibility, which can be a reliable evaluation tool in developing case management and restitution plans
15 Increasing Appearance of Defendants at Pretrial Hearings GPS and electronic monitoring Supervision generates appearance Communication between court staff and pretrial staff with defendant increases appearance rate
16 Victims Rights Throughout the Pretrial Process Anne Seymour, National Crime Victim Advocate
17 Do Victims and Advocates Have a Role in Pretrial Processes? Brief discussion by all panelists Gregory J Donat Former Judge, Tippecanoe County, Indiana, Superior Court Aubree Cote - Pretrial Supervision Unit Supervisor, City and County of Denver Dianne Beer-Maxwell - Program Manager, International Association of Chiefs of Police Chief David Porter - Chief of Police for Dewitt, IA, and chair of IACP s Victim Services Committee
18 Victim Advocates Explain Pretrial Risk Assessment Risk-based bail decision-making: Allows for more informed decisions in the pretrial process. Improves public safety and saves costs to taxpayers Improves identification of potentially dangerous individuals or those likely to flee Allows those deemed eligible to return to families, jobs and communities while awaiting adjudication. State laws should allow for the detention (through due process) of those too risky to be released. Moving to risk assessment and pretrial supervision and monitoring requires the support of all those involved in the criminal justice system. Pretrial Justice Institute
19 Victims Pretrial Release Rights and Protections Timely Notification and Information About Alleged defendant s movement Alleged defendant s status Supervision and conditions National Conference of State Legislatures
20 Victim Notification Automated victim notification systems (SAVIN and VINE) provided by jails, including law enforcement secure detention facilities 24/7/365 In processes including phone, text and Multiple languages and TTY Capacity for victims to opt-in and opt-out at any time Information about victim notification (posters, brochures, etc.) readily available and visible at jails and their visiting rooms
