On Crime: Reduced sentencing efforts undermines the deterrence effect

Reduced sentencing efforts undermines the deterrence effect of facing consequences for one's actions. Bail reform enables those who would typically be behind bars to roam the streets and engage in the same sort of conduct that found them on the wrong side of the law in the first place. Less funding for law enforcement feeds a vicious cycle that emboldens criminals who perceive there being no consequences for their actions.
