        Jail must be for those we cannot trust in society, not people who did a small stupid thing once that hurt no one.

        Amen! Similarly, jail should not just be for those who can't afford the bond. Bail reform is an urgent issue in the country.

        Does this mean a speeding ticket from 1990 that might have resulted in a bench warrant is gone? Asking for a friend...

        If the crimes are so minor as to deem their warrants unworthy of enforcing, perhaps laws shd be rescinded-not set a bad example of amnesty.

        Agree. At least change the penalty from useless incarceration to a fine

        Not enough warrant detectives in the NYPD to arrest a fraction of them.
