How's That Bail Reform Working Out?

As long as you don't count the victims, it is great. #49 #50 and #51: Our list of people accused of shooting (or shooting at) others while on felony bail in 2020 is growing longer today - CWB Chicago. The count is by year that bail was issued.

Our list of people accused of shooting (or shooting at) others while on felony bail in 2020 is growing by three today. We found the cases and a fourth that we’re saving for now while researching a story that you will be reading about soon on CWB Chicago. Here are the details of the cases that are being added to the list.

#49, Theophilus Sexton was on electronic monitoring when he shot a guy in front of his home.

#50, Otis Wise fired multiple times into a crowd.

#51, Jesse Davis was arrested for illegal gun possession in 2020. In 2022 he pointed a gun at a car, and then got into the car. He was arrested with a gun and heroin.

Why is CWBChicago keeping score?

CWBChicago began our series of reports in November 2019 after Cook County Chief Judge Timothy Evans publicly stated, “we haven’t had any horrible incidents occur” under the court’s bond reform initiative.

There are more details at the link above, click thru. CWBChicago is one of the few (sometimes the only) news organization that will report on things the Democratic machine in Chicago doesn't want to see get published.
