PROPOSED RESOLUTION
CALLING FOR A PUBLIC HEARING ON MONETARY BOND
WHEREAS, Illinois’ Bail Statute, 725 ILCS 5/110-1, et seq, mandates that the amount of bail shall be considerate of the financial ability of the accused; and
WHEREAS, a class action lawsuit was filed on October 14, 2016 alleging that pre-trial detainees are detained at Cook County jail solely because they are unable to pay the amount of money fixed as a financial condition of their release; and

WHEREAS, 8,248 individuals were being detained at Cook County Jail as of October 17, 2016; and

treatment; and
WHEREAS, studies have shown that pre-trial detention is more expensive than the pre-trial supervision programs that allow individuals to return to their communities and continue working; and
WHEREAS, judges have the discretion to set bond based on individual factors and these decisions determine whether an individual will remain in the community and continue to work and attend school, or remain incarcerated; and
WHEREAS, judges are required by the Code of Criminal Procedure to consider more than 30 statutory factors pertaining to the nature of the charge(s) against the defendant, his or her criminal history, prior instances of failure to appear, and the defendant's home and community information, such as place of residence, family ties, employment, education, character, and mental condition; and
WHEREAS, judicial decisions on bonds and release conditions varies considerably by judge; and
WHEREAS, judges spend approximately 37 seconds and sometimes as few as 10 seconds listening to information on the charged arrest and any mitigating factors before determining bond; and
WHEREAS, as a matter of practice, judges impose financial conditions without making an inquiry into and findings concerning a defendant’s ability to pay the amount ordered; and
WHEREAS, the average bond amounts set by judges are out of reach for the majority of pre-trial detainees; and

WHEREAS, African Americans are disproportionately detained on monetary bonds through their pretrial period; and
WHEREAS, between the years 2011 and 2013, only 15.8% of African Americans charged with a Class 4 felony were released on bond, while 32.4% of non-African Americans charged with a Class 4 felony were released on bond; and
WHEREAS, other jurisdictions, such as Washington D.C., have successfully ended the reliance on monetary bond and have established non-monetary alternatives; and
WHEREAS, a number of other jurisdictions do not detain arrestees prior to trial solely on lack of ability to pay and instead employ pre-trial supervision programs that often achieve court-appearance rates of over 90%; and
WHEREAS, mounting research has shown alternatives to detention such as text message reminder systems, drug and mental health treatment, unsecured bond and supervised release successfully ensure future court appearances; and
Page 14 of 52
October 26, 2016 Board of Commissioners BOARD AGENDA
WHEREAS, in Washington, D.C., where nearly 90 percent of defendants are released without monetary bond, 88 percent make all of their court appearances and 89 percent do not have any new arrests during the pretrial phase; and
WHEREAS, a 2013 study of 2,000 criminal cases in Colorado found that defendants released on personal recognizance are just as likely to return to court and just as likely to reoffend as those with monetary bonds; and
WHEREAS, the Federal court system ended reliance on monetary bond in 1966; and
WHEREAS, since 2015, five federal courts have found that their local bond systems are unconstitutional; and
WHEREAS, the U.S. Department of Justice recognized in a 2015 friend of the court brief that, “incarcerating individuals solely because of their inability to pay for their release...violates the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment.”
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the President and the Cook County Board of Commissioners do hereby request that a hearing of the Criminal Justice Committee be convened to call on experts to provide statistical data and evidence of unconstitutional practices as well as information on alternatives to monetary bond.

Summary: The purpose of these intergovernmental agreements is to provide the municipalities with Sheriff’s Restoring Neighborhoods Workforce (“RENEW”) crews to provide demolition, enclosure, and cleanup efforts at blighted and dangerous properties on behalf of municipalities as directed by the Sheriff. The services provided by RENEW represent significant cost savings to the Municipality, provide job skills and training to RENEW participants, and provide a service to the community by removing dangerous, abandoned properties which may serve as a hotbed for criminal activity.
