ABOUT THE PROGRAM
To reduce viral transmission in courts and jails during the pandemic, a statewide emergency policy set bail at zero dollars for most misdemeanors and felonies. PPIC research fellow Deepak Premkumar will present a new report on whether those released due to that policy were more likely to be arrested for additional offenses and will offer insight into improving pretrial detention procedures.
This research and event are supported with funding from Stand Together Trust.
