From Driver’s Licenses to Police Body Cams, the SAFE-T Act Contains Much More Than Cash Bail Changes – WTTW (Chicago)

In late December, a Kankakee County judge found the cashless bail component unconstitutional but left the rest of the SAFE-T Act intact. That means, despite the legal pause on cashless bail, major changes to Illinois’ criminal justice system are, or will be, underway — regardless of what the state’s high court decides.

Another misnomer: ‘SAFE-T’ act.

More honest descriptors might be: ‘Criminals get out of jail free,’ or the ‘Victims have no rights,’ or the “Hamstring law enforcement even more’ bill.

Stupid chickens.
