BailCo Bail Bonds Company Looks Closer at the Fallacies of New York’s Bail Reform Law

One of Connecticut’s leading bail bond agencies, BailCo Bail Bonds Company, highlights the shortcomings of the New York State’s 2019 bail law and the effects it has had on rising crime rates.

Manchester, CT, United State – February 14, 2023

BailCo LLC, a bail bond agency offering services in communities across the state of Connecticut, recently expounded on New York’s bail law. Passed in 2019 and made effective in 2020, the law eliminates the use of cash bail and pretrial detention, with the goal of reducing jail overcrowding and improving public safety.

New York State implemented the new bail laws under the guise of putting an end to the “mass incarceration” of impoverished minorities. Supporters of the alterations defended their proposal with anecdotal testimonies that illustrated injustices in the criminal justice system, citing questionable statistical data.

Since its passing, New York City’s crime data revealed a 20% increase in overall index crimes within just two and a half months since bail reform was enacted. Burglary saw a spike to +26%, while car theft skyrocketed with a startling 68%. These numbers demonstrate the true impact that judges’ inability to set bail has had on society.

Andrew Marrochini, the owner of Bail Co LLC, elaborates, “Bail reform has had a direct effect on the citizens of New York and has hindered their safety. While it’s important to promote justice and fairness in our criminal justice system, these new laws have unfortunately had the opposite effect.”

Marrochini suggests, “While there are undoubtedly areas of the criminal justice system that need attention, legislatures must be mindful of their decisions and aware of the consequences they may have on public safety. He adds, “It’s my hope that New York will rethink their bail reform law before these types of legislation proposals “spill over” to other parts of the Tri-state area.”

About BailCo Bail Bonds Company: BailCo Bail Bonds Company is celebrating 20 years in the industry this year. The company offers bail bond services to individuals detained for crimes in the state of Connecticut but lack the financial resources to pay the court-mandated amount.
