Even if a repeat offender with multiple drug distribution convictions on their record is held without bail, if users still want drugs (which they will) a new dealer will simply step in and provide the drugs... it solves nothing .... in fact it could be even more dangerous for the users going to a new dealer who's product they are less familiar with, and increase their likelihood of overdose.
