Albany, NY- The District Attorneys Association of New York (DAASNY), the
New York State Sheriffs’ Association (NYSSA) and the New York State
Association of Chiefs of Police (NYSACOP) join together in calling on the
Governor and the Legislature to adopt sensible changes to New York State’s bail
system that will benefit all the people of our State. The three Associations
endorsed the recommendations of the New York State Justice Task Force on Bail
Reform. (Task Force Report Attached)
“We are supportive of some modifications to our current bail system. We believe
that this is an appropriate path forward on bail reform,” said Oneida County Sheriff
Rob Maciol, President of the New York State Sheriffs’ Association. “While we
still believe that New York is as safe as it’s ever been under the existing bail
system, we agree that there is always room for improvement, for us as law
enforcement officials, and for the communities we serve.”
“The New York State Association of Chiefs of Police believes that the
determination of release should be left in the hands of Judges and Magistrates in
the State of New York. Public safety dictates that we must allow courts to
determine whether someone will pose a threat to our communities,” said Chief
John Aresta President of NYSACOP.
DAASNY, NYSSA and NYSACOP urge the Governor and the Legislature to
adopt the Justice Task Force recommendations on bail as a way of achieving
improvements to the bail system, which we all desire.
