If Chicagoans thought crime was bad now, when this law takes effect, they will leave the state en mass leaving the ferals to loot & murder each other.
I am convinced that the dumbest laws in Illinois are being passed under intense lobbying pressure from the Indiana and Iowa Chambers of Commerce.

It more or less enlists a private police force (bail bondsmen) to ensure that the defendants show up.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Illinois doesn’t have bail bondsmen. Defendant puts up 10% of the set bail, in cash. *I speak from experience.
And if you don't have that 10% you go to a bail bondsman, put up your mother's house as collateral, and the bail bondsman pays the 10%.
There's dozens of bail bondsmen in Chicago alone.
Agreed.
I wonder if that city councilwoman in Minneapolis learned her lesson?
“People arrested for violent crimes will likely be detained by a judge.” If only that were the case. Everywhere this has been implemented they have let violent offenders free.
From the link you provided:
Since there are no bail bondsmen in Illinois, those arrested can post bail directly to the court. This means they must pay the bail to the clerk of the court that will hear their case. Depending on which court, the procedure for posting bail may differ.
This will drive the bail bondsman out of business. So those who have bail set, will have nowhere to turn for bail money.
1st??? no...
There is an ulterior motive here. If you don't show, you get a bench warrant out for your arrest.
Youtube has several lines of videos that feature cops stopping people for traffic violations and then discovering that the driver or passenger has a bench warrant. The results are often a struggle to arrest the subject and a colorful display of sociopathy. 'No bail' ensures that this line of videos will continue to be in plentiful supply.
There you go. And it helps to keep “On Patrol Live” on the air. Every idiot they stop is either smoking dope or has a warrant.
More team Soros democrats winnings.
Illinois Dims liked the Chicago system so much they made it statewide.
criminals lost days due to arrest = zero
success!
remember
its just property
