  • Drug dealer out on Personal Bond through Pretrial fails to appear in court......Newspaper reporter to Judge "why did you let this guy out on a personal bond?" ..."well, pretrial recommended a personal bond". Reporter to Pretrial "investigator".."why did you recommend a personal bond?" pretrial investigator says "we RECOMMENDED the bond, we didn't tell the judge to release this guy on a personal bond!" Pretrial and Judge point fingers at each other but neither are held accountable for their act.

  • Pretrial Services = A.C.O.R.N.

  • HB728 Dead. I hope you were paid well.

  • First and foremost, anyone who believes Ms. Matthews, obviously doesn't know her personally and didn't know her while she was a Pretrial Investigator. Whoever chose her for this video should have asked her what else she did during those two years while she was a Pretrial Investigator. Before you let someone shoot a video for you, you might want to make sure that their morals, values, and integrity are intact. Thank you for continuing to prove me right Ms. Matthews.

  • I can respect small governement point of views on some subjects, but its a mistake to try and privatize criminal justice. I guess the next step is for Walmart to open a prison division. I can understand bail bondsmen trying to protect their position and make money, its the American way. However, if you look at facts and not the lies and politics, then its clear that pretrial better serves the community. Oh and btw, the majority of defendants released on pretrial still have secure bonds, not ROR

  • @tifanddarrell - Just so you know, some localities may be set up how you describe, but I know several localities that only release defendants into pretrial ROR.

  • this video shows what pre-trial release is all about, a program that is abused by pre- trial officers that are not concerned about the welfare of our community, but are in favor of giving thugs a get out of jail free pass.

    a person with a degree of dignity and concern for their community will not be bullied into releasing career criminals for free on taxpayers expense, shame on all the pretrial release so called officers. these same criminals you release today, will rob your house tomorrow.

  • Mr. L,

    Perhaps you did research on Pretrial Officers in a different location. Please explain to me how Pretrial Officers, by the way there is no hyphen in Pretrial, don't care about the welfare of our community? Do you have any idea the amount of stress that criminal justice officers are under day by day? Pretrial Officers live in the communities they work in, do you seriously think that they don't care about the welfare of our community? Do you know how much officers are paid?

  • The private sector does a good job by closely monitoring defendants, accountability and covers 100% of the costs for re-apprehension, all at no cost to taxpayers. Listen to the sheriff of Pasco County, FL We completely cut out the pretrial release program in Pasco County. As a result, we saved taxpayers $350,000 yearly and havent seen any noticeable change in jail population. I have had great success in doing away with the pretrial release program. Pasco County Sheriff Bob White.

  • @bailyes909 Actually in most communities, courts do not require 100% reimbursement for bail jumpers. As a matter of fact, a study was done showing that if California courts had enforced full payment from the bail bond industry, then the state wouldn't be in such horrible debt as it is now.

  • Correct me if I'm wrong but aren't bail bondsmens' fees paid by the person in jail? I think that's the way it should be. I didn't know my county had one of these agencies. Pretrial Services looks more like A.C.O.R.N. to me.

    Give me a bail bondsman any day. At least they "right their wrong" and bring their bail skipper back to the judge without using my tax money.

  • Nicley produced and all, however this video is hindered slightly by a little thing called the truth, which is disturbing considering you use the word in your organization name. I guess its a testament to capitalism that poor bondsmen can afford a lobby to represent their fraudulent interests. How dare you try to slander the work that pretrial officers do based simply on blatant self-interest and lies. What about the jobs you're trying to destroy on the other side?

  • @tifanddarrell , it seems wrong that you support a program that it is totally funded by tax payers and it's a free pass out of jail for these thugs career criminals, the same criminals that break into your house, id fraud, credit card fraud, dui, domestic violence repeated offenders, burglars, thiefs, and many more, it is a joke, maybe the pre trial officers need to find a different job, if you support criminals for self-interest you have a problem.

  • @MrLuismiami Sir, keeping those same "criminals" in jail costs the taxpayer much more money than if they were on supervised release and still contributing their own tax dollars by working and shopping in communities. How quickly we shove the debatable rights of bail mentioned in the Constitution. I seem to also remember something about innocent until proven guilty. I don't hear you complaining about probation. Could that be because probation doesn't threaten the corrupt bail bonding industry?

  • No sense in arguing it is evident , you are against bail bonds industry, one thing for sure, about 80% of criminals will bond out of jail, but if offered a free out of jail pass, they will take advantage of it, keep in mind no supervision and no one will go after the defendant if he fails to appear in court. The argument here is the safety of the community and totally against the welfare of criminals. The judicial system needs to be tougher on criminals and stop the politics. "NO MORE ABUSE"
