As of 2023, Illinois is throwing its hands in the air - um, focusing on criminal justice reform - and will no longer be requiring cash bail for a series of crimes in a bill ironically called the SAFE-T Act.

Check out what crimes now offer "pre-trial release."

While I deplore the prison industrial complex and for-profit prisons that incarcerate people for decades to turn them into modern-day slaves, I also think we need deterrents in place to prevent crimes from occurring.

What do you think of bail reform that allows the accused to go free on "pretrial release?" Do you think it's reasonable to let those accused of certain crimes be let go and expected to return for their trials? Do you think crime in Illinois will increase? Share your thoughts in the comments.
