Well, it’s true. That’s why the bail is so high. In Wisconsin there is no such as remand.

“ Well, it’s true. That’s why the bail is so high. In Wisconsin there is no such as remand.”

___________

In Wisconsin you can be denied release in many violent scenarios. At the top of the list is murder:

Excerpt:

969.01 Eligibility for release.
(1) Before conviction. Before conviction, except as provided in ss. 969.035 and 971.14 (1r), a defendant arrested for a criminal offense is eligible for release under reasonable conditions designed to assure his or her appearance in court, protect members of the community from serious bodily harm, or prevent the intimidation of witnesses.

So let’s look at 969.035:

Excerpt:

969.035 Pretrial detention; denial of release from custody.
(1) In this section, “violent crime” means any crime specified in s. 940.01, 940.02, 940.03, 940.05, 940.06, 940.07, 940.08, 940.10, 940.19 (5), 940.195 (5), 940.198 (2) (a) or (c), 940.21, 940.225 (1), 940.23, 941.327, 948.02 (1) or (2), 948.025, 948.03, or 948.085.

So let’s look at 940.01 and 940.02 at the top of the list:

CHAPTER 940
CRIMES AGAINST LIFE AND BODILY SECURITY
SUBCHAPTER I
LIFE
940.01 First-degree intentional homicide.
940.02 First-degree reckless homicide.
940.03 Felony murder.
