Client D.T.

“Under the Pretrial Fairness Act, detention is not available for this offense and release is the default. The State has not alleged a specific, articulable threat to any person. As to community ties under 725 ILCS 5/110-2, the Court should note that my client is the primary caregiver for minor children who have no other custodial adult, and is actively enrolled in a community treatment program and attending as scheduled. Those ties reasonably assure appearance, and any risk the State identifies can be answered with non-monetary conditions rather than a bond my client cannot post. Your Honor, addressing the factors this Court weighs most heavily — treatment continuity, caregiving responsibilities, and specific threat analysis —: State plainly that the offense is non-detainable and pivot immediately to the client's caregiving duties and active treatment.”
