Losing your job and not being able to get another one is a pretty common outcome of being on bail for serious charges. If you turn out to be guilty (like Marcus is), then it’s really no big deal. If you’re innocent, then the entire pre-trial experience is usually going to completely turn your life upside down. There is no reasonable justification for creating a two-tiered justice system where a certain class of people either have expedited trials, or completely outrageous bail conditions.

- AmericanChopper 7y agoIt’s entirely appropriate for a person guilty of a crime to be punished for it.
