Commenter says Democrats’ New Bail Law Will Turn McHenry County Jail into “a 1 Hour Photo Place”

From “NorthStar” comes the observations below:

“Might as well turn the McHenry County Jail into a 1 Hour Photo Place.

“That about all it will be with this nonsense.

‘Catch em’, Print and Photo em’, Release em’.

‘Save a whole lot on Salaries, Benefits, Heating, A/C, Electricity.

‘They no longer do Immigration there for the Feds, now wont barely hold everyday criminals anymore.

‘Why need all those people and space anymore?

‘The criminals will all be out among us.’

  1. Dug a little deeper after posting this and found a listing of 200 offenses deemed “detainable”, meaning no “get out of jail card free” at time of arrest and booking. Feels a little better, but still too many loop holes. Link is worth a looksee to see what this amended, (thank God), No Cash Bail Bill now does NOT include. Thank a Republican for that for exposing this and the Public Outcry that came with it, because these 200 were NOT all originally in the Bill as passed in the wee hours by a Democratic led State Legislature.

  2. Boldo, thanks for the post.

    These are the animals monk and Joe want let loose.

  3. I can see the New Monopoly game coming to a store near you,

    card changed “go directly to jail” will not be Go directly HOME..

    Dont’ stop for one more ..

  4. Yet they still have 150+ employees working in the jail.

    Most earning near a six figure salary

  5. At what point will the cops see this as a message not to bother arresting someone?

    A little processing and out they go.

    Probably still fired up from being inconvenienced for an hour.
