Illinois’ UN-SAFE-T Act
A bad new law has put the state on a path to further breakdown of public order
https://www.city-journal.org/illinois-un-safe-t-act
The law represents yet another slapdash effort to inject “equity” into the criminal-justice system and will likely produce the usual result: more repeat offenders on the street and rising crime numbers, especially in the very communities that the bill seeks to protect.
Its most controversial measure—the virtual elimination of cash bail—won’t take effect until January 1, but state’s attorneys and law-enforcement groups are already warning that the law was rushed and is poorly worded. To paraphrase Nancy Pelosi, it’s another case of passing the bill to find out what’s in it.
