Summary

This legal document argues against granting a defendant's proposed bail package. The central claim is that the defendant has funneled the majority of her wealth to her husband over the past five years, and these are the same assets that would be used for the bail bond. Therefore, the husband would not be losing his own money if the defendant were to flee, diminishing the bond's effectiveness as a deterrent. The argument is supported by citing a Second Circuit ruling against bail systems that create a two-tiered system for wealthy versus non-wealthy defendants.
