IN SB0002

Allows courts to deny bail for non-murder offenses if the state proves by preponderance of evidence that proof is evident for the charged offense and by clear and convincing evidence that the arrestee poses a substantial safety risk with no conditions that could protect the community

Creates new bail hearing procedures requiring hearings within 48 hours of state's motion, with continuances limited to 5 days for arrestees and 3 days for the state, and requires written findings if bail is denied

Requires violent arrestees (charged with Level 1-5 felonies involving crimes of violence) to have bail set individually by the court with full payment by surety bond, cash deposit, or combination—removes separate "repeat violent arrestee" category

Prohibits release without money bail for violent arrestees, sexually violent predator defendants, those denied bail under new procedures, and foreign nationals unlawfully present in the U.S.

Permits courts to retain cash bond deposits to pay publicly funded representation costs, fines, fees, and restitution without holding an indigency hearing if the defendant signed an agreement allowing such retention
