What is Pretrial release?
This is the defendant’s release from jail without posting money bail or after depositing a small percentage of the total amount needed to secure their release.
People with previous accusations of serious crimes don’t qualify for pretrial releases. This is unless they can prove they’re not a flight risk and will show up in court when needed.
Most defendants released on their recognizance must meet with pretrial agents before going home. Here, they’ll be fitted with electronic monitoring devices that track their whereabouts. Pretrial services officers also work to determine whether defendants will pose a threat to victims.
