[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He was probably pre-trial in the case from last year because the courts are so backed up. And he was on the streets because the current policy mood is to favor pre-trial release over detention with the elimination of cash bail. In the 2016 case, he may have been treated leniently due to just youth offender status.[/quote] And why are they backed up? Because there aren't enough judges, aren't enough courtrooms, etc. [/quote] Courts have been “backed up” for decades. Then they closed due to COVID and the backlog got out of control. [/quote]
