People v .Walton

Defendant appealed after his pretrial release on conditions was revoked and the trial court found that defendant’s continued detention was reasonably necessary to ensure his appearance at court hearings and to prevent the commission of a future felony or Class A misdemeanor. The appellate court affirmed, finding that the trial court did not abuse its discretion where defendant had violated two of the “core” conditions of his initial release and where it had been proven that defendant’s release with conditions was not effective in guarding against re-offending. (ZENOFF and LANNERD, concurring)
