Bail Reform - What Does It Really Mean?
Manage episode 324698098 series 3335724
Join host Shane Rolf and his guests, Kansas House of Representatives members, Rep. Rep. John E. Barker of the 70th House District and Rep. Stephen Owens of the 74th House District for a lively and informative discussion. Bail reform is currently the hottest criminal justice topic. But it means different things to different people. Some call for the release of all defendants because they are collectively the victims of an oppressive criminal justice system. Others see bail reform as the chance to deny even the option of bail to certain defendants. Are either of these positions correct? How is bail reform, no matter how it is defined, impacting those who live in the Midwest?
