Before the news says “disparities,” it would be useful to know what percentage of people stopped who committed arrestable offenses, like having warrants, contraband, or false plates were Black or Latino. If that percentage is 90 or higher, there is no “disparity.”

Let me ask you this, if the total population is 500 people and 400 people with misdemeanor cases, and none of the 400 got re-arrested compared post reform to 200 re-arrests pre bail reform. Then the remaining 100 people had violent felony cases, and bail reform caused the re arrest number to go from 50 to 75, that’s an overall decrease (250 to 75), but are we better off?
