How in the hell is this shocking?

Or surprising?

Or anything other than expected?

The only thing I find shocking about those numbers is that it's not 100% of the criminals released on $0 bail didn't reoffend.

My question is if/when they were caught again, did they get released with zero bail again?

I'll bet at least some of the 30% DID re-offend, but actually learned from their first mistake and just haven't gotten caught again. Or have just been lucky so far.
Trump won in 2016. Democrats haven't been so offended since Republicans came along and freed their slaves.
