This page from a legal document argues against pretrial detention by citing several court precedents. It asserts that constitutional protections and the Bail Reform Act require that any doubts about releasing a defendant be resolved in their favor. The text emphasizes that even if a defendant is deemed a flight risk, the law still favors release under the least restrictive conditions possible.
