re: #136 lawhawk

Threatening law enforcement with deadly force tends to make you a flight risk. It also makes you a threat to the public. That’s reason enough to deny bail.

There’s also no evidence that these people would make their appearances (the purpose of bail). Claiming to be sovereign citizens tends to do that too. So the judge is right to keep them detained.

When does the presumption of innocence start, at arrest, arraignment or trial?
