>By law, this decision hinges on the judge’s prediction of what the defendant would do if released. That isn’t the legal standard for release pending trial. Thus is may look like an algorithm “predicts” crime better than judges, but judges can’t withhold bail/bond because they “predict” a certain defendant will commit another crime (because that’s not exactly judges are doing when determining bond). |
