The first full month of the state’s cashless bail system in Kane County has been successful, but the system still needs some minor tweaks, Kane County State’s Attorney Jamie Mosser and Kane County Chief Judge Clint Hull said. The county’s circuit court publishes a portal, showing how many cases police departments have sent to first appearance court and the charges involved.
“We don’t have enough data on that just yet,” Hull said. Kane County’s jail population went from an average of between 335 to 360 people a day to 282 people on Thursday, Hull said. “There’s a significant drop and is really huge for the taxpayers,” Hull said. Mosser said some issues still remain with the cashless bail system, including what she believes is unclear wording in the legislation that could lead to different judicial interpretations.
