Answer. First im very honored to be here with plenty of officials. I have tenure so let me be blunt. We are speaking about building a system which we call mass incarceration. We have many of people who dont need to be locked up and that is to provide public safety. Thats one of the reasons i see bail as so critical. Its not a sexy topic.
