This is interesting. I like the idea, of course, but I'm worried about the implementation. Who will be doing the risk assessments? How do we know that the risk assessments will be equitable? How will we address biases and outright racism/sexism in those risk assessments?
The risk assessments will be the same theyve always been, except now they wont punish people for being poor by only letting people with money bail out of jail

how much money you pay should have no bearing on whether youre released while awaiting trial
