Judge Neel shared a CA Supreme Court decision constitutionality of pretrial detention

 


Humboldt Superior Court Presiding Judge Kelly Neel just sent this email to me and three other local media outlets. Let's see who acknowledges that others received the same email and document.

The document is lengthy. It is available online. And hopefully soon on the Humboldt court website. For those who want the cliff notes version, see pages I have included in this post.

"Good evening,

I just wanted to share a CA Supreme Court decision that has been issued as it relates to the constitutionality of pretrial detention (keeping someone in custody prior while awaiting trial).  I don’t know who else might be interested, but feel free to pass along.  I’m reaching out because it’s a really important case that was just handed down and your communities of readers might be interested.

My guess is that community members will be interested, and I wanted to put a link to it on our website, but I haven’t had a chance to get that done. "
