He stated that bail reform had created new opportunities. \u201clawlessness.\u201d He claimed that criminals are being punished too lightly has lead to an increase in crimes like petty crime and harm to the economy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat I\u2019m focusing on is that the no cash bail is creating lawlessness in a lot of our cities,\u201d said Suarez. \u201cWhat\u2019s happening is, for example, people get out right away, they\u2019re not even, you know, they don\u2019t even have to post bail. So they\u2019re able to get out right away. And so we\u2019re seeing someone go into like a CVS, for example, and take thousands of dollars worth of merchandise, which is causing a CVSs to close, which hurts the, you know, the rest of the city, but that\u2019s not particularly related to, to the gun violence issue. It\u2019s related more to petty crime, which is creating lawlessness in some of our cities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Suarez also spoke out about his policies regarding Miami&#8217;s police. \u201cWe are funding our police,\u201d He said. \u201cA lot of cities cut into the defunding police movement. And we\u2019re seeing [police funding] as a bipartisan issue.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Last week, some <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/houston-restaurant-owners-are-sleeping-in-their-businesses-armed-to-keep-out-burglars-because-of-citys-lax-bail-policies\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Houston<\/a> bar and restaurant owners started sleeping in their places of business to deter criminals, citing the city\u2019s lax bail policies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have been burglarized 15 times in the last year,\u201d Lindsey Rae was the owner of Two-Headed Dog. This information was obtained via the New York Post. \u201cWe\u2019re seeing, if they are getting caught, they\u2019re getting re-released because of the cash bond issues we\u2019re having,\u201d She added. \u201cThey can come back and rob us again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A 2021 investigation from ABC affiliate KTRK found that Houston\u2019s bail policies had allowed more criminals back onto the streets. According to the outlet, only 3.5% of Harris County court cases resulted in defendants being released on felony bonds in 2011. In 2021, however, defendants were released in 18.8% cases, almost six times more often.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, the probe revealed that criminals are more likely to commit crime while being held on bail. Only 3.5% of cases in 2011 involved defendants who were already on at least one felony bond. In 2021, this number rose to 19%. 968 of those cases involved accused felons who allegedly committed at least four new crimes after being released on bond. The outlet discovered that one of the suspects was currently held on 13 separate bonds.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miami Republican Mayor Francis Suarez said Sunday that no cash bail policies in cities and counties across the country are contributing to rising crime.
