ARTICLE 1. BAIL REFORM

 
5    Section 1-1. This Article 1 may be referred to as the Bail
6Reform Act of 2017.
 
7    Section 1-3. Legislative findings.
8    The General Assembly recognizes that the promotion of
9public safety and protection of crime victim rights are 2 of
10the main focuses of our State's criminal justice system; it
11further acknowledges that protecting the rights of the accused
12is central to the integrity of our State's criminal justice
13system. With these focuses in mind, this amendatory Act of the
14100th General Assembly establishes the Bail Reform Act of 2017
15for the citizens of this State, in recognition that the
16decision-making behind pre-trial release shall not focus on a
17person's wealth and ability to afford monetary bail but shall
18instead focus on a person's threat to public safety or risk of
19failure to appear before a court of appropriate jurisdiction.
 
20    Section 1-5. The Criminal Code of 2012 is amended by
21changing Section 33G-9 as follows:

21    seized and such proffer may be used by the court as to the
22    current street value of the smallest unit of the drug
23    seized.

2    paragraph (f) (3) of this Section, the defendant may demand
3    and shall be entitled to be brought to trial on the offense
4    with respect to which he was formerly released on bail
5    within 90 days after the date on which his bail was
6    revoked. If the defendant is not brought to trial within
7    the 90 day period required by the preceding sentence, he
8    shall not be held longer without bail. In computing the 90
9    day period, the court shall omit any period of delay
10    resulting from a continuance granted at the request of the

13    issued pursuant to this Code or is arrested for an
14    unrelated offense and it is subsequently discovered that
15    the defendant is a subject of another warrant or warrants
16    issued pursuant to this Code, the defendant shall be
17    transferred promptly to the court which issued such
18    warrant. If, however, the defendant appears initially
19    before a court other than the court which issued such
20    warrant, the non-issuing court shall not alter the amount
21    of bail heretofore set on such warrant unless the court
22    sets forth on the record of proceedings the conclusions of
23    law and facts which are the basis for such altering of
24    another court's bond. The non-issuing court shall not alter
25    another courts bail set on a warrant unless the interests
