Court dealt a blow Thursday to California’s reliance on cash bail, ruling that judges can’t hold people before trial just because they can’t afford to pay for their release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court’s unanimous opinion finds that judges can’t simply rely on pre-determined bail amounts that functionally keep the less affluent behind bars, and concluded “that our Constitution prohibits pretrial detention to combat an arrestee’s risk of flight unless the court first finds, based upon clear and convincing evidence, that no condition or conditions of release can reasonably assure the arrestee’s appearance in court.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The ruling is the latest step in a several-year struggle in California and nationally to upend the use of bail, which the court found often results in “wealth-based detention” that violates defendants’ equal protection and due process rights.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size='medium' align='right' citation='USF law professor Lara

innocence.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Grounding it firmly in the constitution makes it very clear that this is a right that is fundamental and it must be respected in trial courts in every part of the state,” she said. “That’s important because we were getting disparate outcomes depending on who the DA was and what kind of jurisdiction the person was in.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Judges must now consider whether other requirements — such as electronic monitoring, pretrial check-ins or addiction treatment — can reasonably ensure a defendant won’t reoffend or skip court. And while judges may still impose bail, it can only be set at an amount the defendant can afford.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Justices made the ruling in the case of Kenneth Humphrey, a now 66-year-old Black man who faced $350,000 bail in 2017, when he was charged in San Francisco with robbery after taking $5 and a bottle of cologne from a neighbor. Humphrey’s public defender argued in court that he couldn’t afford that bail, and was held in jail unconstitutionally.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Humphrey asks whether it is constitutional to incarcerate a defendant solely because he lacks financial resources,” the opinion says. “We conclude it is not.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The opinion written by Associate Justice Mariano-Florentino Cuéllar cites research finding that large urban counties in California incarcerate people pretrial at higher rates than elsewhere in the country. And in this state, bail isn’t cheap. The median bail amount in California is $50,000, over five times the national median.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Today’s historic decision affirms that people like our client Kenneth Humphrey, who bravely fought for his pretrial freedom, can no longer be locked up in jail simply for being poor and when they pose no threat to public safety,\" said San Francisco Public Defender Mano Raju in a statement.

The law split progressives, many of whom thought that it left too much discretion in the hands of trial judges to continue to jail people awaiting trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>State Sen.

Since the ballot measure is a referendum on SB 10, which was \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11689184/gov-brown-signs-bill-ending-cash-bail-in-california\">signed by then-Gov. Jerry Brown\u003c/a> in 2018 — a \"yes\" vote will allow the legislation to take effect and a \"no\" vote would overturn the law. Under state law, a referendum puts a new law on hold until voters can weigh in — meaning the 2018 law never went into effect. If Proposition 25 passes, California would become the first state in the nation to completely outlaw money bail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Proposition 25’s backers say Raphling and other opponents are wrong, and that the measure will actually lead to fewer people being held in jail pretrial, and make the system more fair.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>John Bauters, budget advocacy director for the criminal justice reform group Californians for Safety and Justice, pointed to a study by the Public Policy Institute of California which found that the change would result in more than 142,000 people each year spending less time in jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Bauters said the new system that would be set up under Proposition 25 would ensure that people don’t lose their jobs, their homes or custody of their kids while they languish in jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There's tons of statistics and data about how people who are held pretrial are more likely to plead guilty to things they didn't commit,” he said. “People who are released pretrial actually get a more pure form of justice.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>What Does the Law Do?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>The 2018 bill, SB 10, made money bail illegal in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If voters decide to uphold SB 10 by passing Proposition 25, the state would replace bail with a system that generally requires people arrested for misdemeanors to be automatically let go before trial — and for those accused of violent felonies to be kept in jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those accused of lower-level felonies would go before a judge who could keep them in jail or put conditions on their release. Those conditions could include things like mandatory drug treatment, or a weekly probation check-in. The judge’s decision would in part be based on the results of a risk assessment tool that would essentially measure a person’s likelihood of re-offending or skipping out on court.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Each county would have to adopt their own risk assessment tool.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Those tools — based on algorithms that 'learn' more about risk profiles as more data about criminal defendants is entered into them — have become one of the flash points for those opposed to the bail law and Proposition 25.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Too Much Power for Algorithms and Judges?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Raphling, for example, warns that these risk assessment tools could be biased or misleading themselves, noting that someone’s risk of being rearrested can be as much about policing decisions and the color of their skin as that person’s actual conduct.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[pullquote size=\"medium\" align=\"right\" citation=\"John Raphling, Human Rights Watch researcher\"]'The bail bond industry is a parasite. They are bloodsuckers. But the blood wouldn't be available to them if it wasn't for judges and law enforcement.'[/pullquote]What Proposition 25 does, he said, is make these algorithms “the gatekeeper” to someone’s freedom before trial. And even more concerning, he and other opponents say, is that the entire system gives judges way too much power to decide who leaves and who stays in jail before a trial.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"If you're low risk, then (under Prop. 25) you're likely to get out — but the judges can always override any decision of risk assessment,” he said. “In my research, I've found that they overwhelmingly override in favor of locking people up ... and there's real questions about the accuracy of those (risk assessments).\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Insha Rahman, a former public defender who is now vice president of advocacy and initiatives at the Vera Institute of Justice in New York, agrees. She said there’s no reason to think that judges would behave differently because Proposition 25 still gives them the power to hold people in jail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"When it comes to public safety, across the board, we tend to just use our discretion to detain. That's what the system has historically done,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Decreasing Racial Bias?\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>But Santa Barbara Probation Chief Tanja Heitman, whose county has been experimenting with alternatives to money bail, said she believes risk assessments can actually help reduce racial disparities.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I will never suggest that risk assessments are perfect. They are an evolving science and they continue to improve,’ she said. “As long as there's over-policing in communities of color, as long as there is those inherent disparities in access to health care and educational employment opportunities, there's going to be disparities in arrest rates that are then going to impact the criminal justice system.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But in Santa Barbara County, she said, she has seen the risk assessments help erase racial biases in the juvenile criminal justice system. Youths of color are 2.6 times more likely to get arrested by law enforcement than white juveniles, she said; but their release rates were identical. The disparities among races reemerged when it came to charging decisions by prosecutors, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think probation officers are just as likely to allow biases unintentionally to creep into their decision making if they don't have an assessment tool to help guide them, if they don't have an assessment tool to ground to them,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='bail']While many police and prosecutors groups oppose Proposition 25, Heitman and other probation officials believe it will make communities safer.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know that money bail doesn't make us safe, but allowing people to stay connected to their families, to continue working (while they await trial) — that's what's going to enable them to be successful and improve our community overall,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Raphling, however, points out that Heitman and other probation departments have an incentive to support Proposition 25: They will gain power and funding because their responsibilities will be expanded to include more pretrial defendants under the measure.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bail industry is funding the opposition. But Raphling said his opposition to Proposition 25 doesn’t mean he and others support that industry.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The bail bond industry is a parasite. They are bloodsuckers.

Those conditions could include things like mandatory drug treatment, or a weekly probation check-in.

Not a lot of nuance there,\" he said. \"[And] a lot of racism.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Still, Bonta and another Democrat, state Sen.

Those organizations offer an alternative to massive loans from bail bonds companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pilar Weiss, director of the Community Justice Exchange, a group that helps support that network of community bail funds, said the bail fund donations are proving to be an entry point for people to get more educated about mass incarceration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a first step that somebody donated to a community bail fund. That was the first time they realized that people in their community were still, often, held in a cage for an indefinite amount of time because of money,\" Weiss said. \"That connects also to the conversation about how our resources are being spent in their community, on police rather than on libraries, schools and safety centers.

Those organizations offer an alternative to massive loans from bail bonds companies.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pilar Weiss, director of the Community Justice Exchange, a group that helps support that network of community bail funds, said the bail fund donations are proving to be an entry point for people to get more educated about mass incarceration.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"It's a first step that somebody donated to a community bail fund. That was the first time they realized that people in their community were still, often, held in a cage for an indefinite amount of time because of money,\" Weiss said. \"That connects also to the conversation about how our resources are being spent in their community, on police rather than on libraries, schools and safety centers.
