Pursuant to new emergency bail schedule, Defendants are supposed to be released w/o even having a bail hearing.
Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office discussed trying to get around no-bail rules by seeking arrest warrants. San Bernardino and Orange County Sheriffs were both highly critical of new no-bail law.
Some have suggested release of all the defendants will cause increased crime.
