“You could hear in the judge's voice when they first went before him for the brazen robbery of Lola in Saratoga Springs and again at today's hearing that he wanted to set bail for these alleged burglars but was not empowered to do so as 49 other states are because of New York’s failed bail law.”
“Now these three suspects, who I’m told have a rap sheet, are again free to possibly commit additional crimes. That's absurd.”
“The scales of justice are now tipped in favor of criminals as crime victims have become the forgotten New Yorkers.”
“We need to pass my bipartisan legislation (S.905) to repeal this failed law and give judges reasonable discretion.”
