The IL bail reform law took effect in September 2023. Causal studies needed to truly understand impact, but clearly this is not what the loudest ideological critics expected.
It's really great that Chicago's murders are down and shouldn't be lost that there are 1000 more men in pretrial detention than last year. Keeping violent people behind bars makes communities safer. Oct 2017 - 7,222.July 2018 - 6,157.July 2019 - 5,945.July 2020 - 4,814.July

BOP finally got funding to repair its dilapidated facilities and support officers. I hope that funding is not wasted on this. We already have a supermax federal prison in Florence, CO, that no one’s ever escaped from.
Bondi: It could hold middle-class violent prisoners, it could hold illegal aliens. It could hold anything. This is a terrific facility. It needs a lot of work but no one has been known to escape from alcatraz and survive.

Seems to be a disturbing uptick in the number of people who respond to any drop in crime by saying it’s because the police aren’t reporting it.

I’d like to see an analysis of how often prison TVs are tuned to PBS. I’m going to guess it’s less than one percent of the time.

All credit to the Trump admin & Congress for providing this funding. We have been talking ab/ the infrastructure backlog for years & this seems like first meaningful step to addressing it. Investing in staff and training smart, too.
