Criminal Courts

Discussion prompt:

Read about the Manhattan Bail Project started in 1961. It showed great promise to reform the bail system. Contrast it with the 2017 video below from the same organization that started the Manhattan Bail Project, Vera Institute of Justice

Has the bail system improved between the two projects? Is bail disproportionately impacting the disadvantaged? What could we do to better administer the bail system?
