Most of the people who are detained for non-serious and non-violent crimes could be cited and released at the scene or booked and then released from jail with orders to appear back in court for an arraignment if charges are filed later. “Gascón’s policy is not to ask for bail on non-serious, non-violent felons. We are not allowed to ask for it at all.”The new zero-bail policy took effect in L.A. County on October 1. The policy allows some criminal suspects accused of non-violent or non-serious crimes to be cited and released when they would have previously been held on bond.
LA County Sheriff Robert Luna also spoke during the meeting and said residents will be the ultimate victims.
