        The bond fees are outrageous and then these people have to pay a for-profit "court monitoring" company??? And it's for ANY crime that...

        After we take the country back from Putin, we need a civil rights movement for criminal justice reform. It's corrupt AF.

        Judge is apparently corrupt and needs to be removed. All money needs to be paid back. I'm guessing he gets a kickback.

        ...people are ACCUSED (not even convicted) of?? The criminal justice system has become a for-profit system. And it's sickening. 😡

        I'm shocked. If this continues, we could end up with a criminal justice system unfair to poor people... Would Americans even tolerate that?
