Bail in the Midwest

Join host Shane Rolf and his guest, Mike Whitlock, Executive Vice President and Partner of American Surety Company. Mr. Whitlock provides a look at what’s going on with criminal justice in Illinois, a year after The SAFE-T Act was enacted. The Safety, Accountability, Fairness and Equity-Today Act, (SAFE-T Act), made a number of reforms to the criminal justice system, affecting policing, pretrial detention and bail, sentencing and corrections. While some tout its success, Mr. Whitlock offers facts to the contrary. https://www.asc-usi.com
