TPPF Announces New Research on Rural Pretrial Incarceration
Content Multimedia - 9 hours ago
By Marc Levin, Michael Haugen Our research shows that rural pretrial incarceration has grown more than 400 percent since 1970. Possible reasons include the epidemic of opioids and other drugs, the inability of many defendants to afford high bail amounts, the reluctance of judges to release defendants on their own recognizance, and the lack of accessible treatment alternatives. Fortunately, our paper provides many solutions that policymakers can act on to ensure constitutional rights while also promoting public safety and reducing the burden on taxpayers.
