We're in a pandemic. No one should be in jail because they violated parole by missing a meeting. No one should be in prison because they couldn't make $1,000 bail.
Thanks to , , and the team for raising this issue.

How do you account for the people arrested multiple times since being released for Coronavirus precautions or "No Bail" laws?
Agreed. New Year's Eve, 4 yrs ago,driving home at sunset, after pickingup food for us (while gay&feminist in TX),received speeding ticket. Marked courtdate on my phone cal. 4 March. On Valentine's Day, 6 wks after ticket,arrested at myhome 4 missing courtdate.Never bn 2 jail b4.
Also, my mobile dental unit, parked in the neighborhood, since March 26, was towed March 30 & impounded, during corona stay at home order. Unfair. Unjust. Other cars there not towed. Can't pay fees during corona. No $ to pay fees. feministgayprogressive smallbiz
Rep KBass! Evening. The parameters to convict and to jail can conform to save lives even for harden to first time convicted criminals through a well thought out rebuilt prison. Obviously, this is unnecessary due to a definite time frame ending on this pandemic. A fan.
