There's another bill he needs to sign also... making sure the police don't over charge in order to circumvent the no bail requirement... police have a habit of charging felonies to minorities so they plea faster to a misdomeaner...it's bullshit

I'm a left leaning guy but let's temper the blind praise for Jerry Brown. This bill was a watered down compromise that will probably land more people in jail without ANY way out. http://www.curbprisonspending.org/2018/08/23/open-letter-to-governor-brown/ …

This is a bad bill -- and could lead to more people in jail.

Because ....risk assesment and algorithmic scores etc..too many extenuating circumstances go unaddressed. #1 why arrest misdemeanors at all? Why the rigamarole & expense of jail/processing? #2 so if you have a felony ...you probably screwed..you now have no recourse/$power.

#SB10 gives judges unprecedented & unchecked power to incarcerate legally innocent Californians w/o due process - we know this means continued mass jailing of Black, Brown, low-income ppl. -@ErinLeighGeorge@LexStepphttp://bit.ly/2PMxhOsThanks.

Nonviolent misdemeanors don't belong in jail at all! What about the guy "accused" of rape & exonerated by DNA at trial, the attempted murder that was really a fight gone bad & no threat to humanity? The 4 time parole violating felon only crime use/posess drugs? What abt them?

Not to correct the AP, but NJ abolished money bail starting 1/1/2017 & I would argue NJ's is a better bill.

Does this include convicted felons and those more than 90 days delinquent in child support?

I read the above article and agree with the whole thing, problems and all. Some rights groups are protesting some portions of it but the article mentions no alternatives being presented by the opponents, so what's the answer. Not the law as it is written evidently.

That’s not actually true - a lot of advocates say this will end up locking more people up, plus increasing surveillance of people awaiting trial within their communities.
