How's That Affordable Bail Working Out?

Cases 29, 30 and 31, of people out on bail for felonies, accused of killing, trying to kill, or shooting someone in Chicago. Note the arrest must be for a new offense.

Keeping people in jail is unfair.

Fist up, Christopher Solis-Govea. #29: On electronic monitoring for gun case, man escapes and shoots victim in the face, prosecutors say | CWB Chicago.

He posted bail in January, but went AWOL from electronic monitoring, and a judge issued an arrest warrant on January 15th.

Solis-Govea remained at large until Tuesday, when CPD’s fugitive apprehension unit arrested him for allegedly shooting a man in the face on March 3 — almost exactly two months after Judge Ortiz lectured him about the potential consequences of firing a gun.

Next, is Karon Hunt. #30: Man, on bond for gun case, shot woman 10 times in her back, prosecutors say.

Prosecutors said the alleged victim, a 28-year-old woman, was hanging out with friends on the 7300 block of South Prairie when Brunt joined them and began talking with her around 1:30 a.m. on May 23.

The woman noticed a gun in Brunt’s waistband and decided to walk back to her car, Assistant State’s Attorney Gail Bembnister said. As she got into the vehicle, Brunt pulled out the weapon and shot her ten times in the back, according to Bembnister.

And finally Jerome Powell. #31: Man shot 2 victims in separate robberies while on bail for felony gun case, prosecutors say.

A man who was on probation for burglary and on bond for allegedly being a felon in possession of a firearm shot two victims in separate robberies less than an hour apart earlier this month, prosecutors said Sunday. Jerome Powell, 23, is now the 31st person accused of killing, trying to kill, or shooting someone in Chicago this year while awaiting trial for another felony.

But remember, Kim Foxx, not-so-affectionately known as Crimesha, Cook County State's Attorney, says that increased crime in Chicago is a "misconception."

So who is it unfair to, to keep felons in jail? Because it is not fair to the 31 people who have been victims.

  1. It's working out great, since the whole reason for the exercise is to crap on traditional white society. Just like enabling the homeless isn't about compassion for the homeless it's about forcing you to sniff and step on their shit. It's about degrading your society and forcing you to acknowledge your subservience. A sort of ritual mounting to show who's boss. As far as the black murder victims go, well you can't chop wood without making splinters. You've got to look at the big picture (as most black people apparently do) and that, as I said, is going great.
