New York Dem pushes back against bail reform, wants more authority for judges
Fox News
A New York County Democratic legislator is pushing for a resolution calling on the state to review its bail reform laws.
"We've tried bail reform," Purtell told Fox News. "It's not all bad. There's certainly some equalizing factors in that, but it's fallen short in identifying major crimes or crimes that affect neighborhoods."
"When you don't leave it to the judges to decide whether someone is a threat to our communities … of course, it's going to affect crime," the legislator said.
