Bail System Case Study

The Bail system as it is now makes sense as collateral for someone who has committed a crime. I believe that we should stay with the same system, but tweak it towards specific income and crimes. The biggest issue that most people have with bail is the fact that it appeals towards the rich and can be disastrous towards the poor. To these groups committing a crime might be either an inconvenience or can potentially destroy their future. Dealing with bail should be handled by a case by case basis where your financial situation and severity of crime should be the basis of how much you should pay. I believe it is better to tweak system than potentially take a risk that might be disastrous.
