MEMPHIS, Tenn. -- The Shelby County District Attorney's Office teamed up with the Memphis Police Department and Judicial Commissioners in attempts to improve the bond-setting process. The new comprehensive form will now include a "Law Enforcement Notes" section replacing the previous bond recommendation section. The D.A.'s office says the new section is designed to "guide judicial commissioners in making more informed decisions." Shelby County bail reform sparks crime debate These five factors will be considered in the new form: Evidence of Flight – Indicators of whether the defendant may attempt to flee before trial. Evidence of Evasion – Any known history or actions suggesting the defendant may try to evade law enforcement. Evidence of Violence – Including physical acts of violence, as well as behavior exhibited on social media, which may indicate a propensity for violent behavior. Evidence of Other Crimes – Information regarding any prior criminal history or related activities. Other Relevant Information – Any additional factors that may be pertinent to public safety and the appropriateness of bond (Example: gang affiliation). "Safety is our top priority. By providing more relevant info for judicial commissioners and judges to consider, bonds can better reflect the public safety risks posed by defendants," said District Attorney Steve Mulroy. "This isn’t about fixing blame. It’s about getting decision-makers the best information available, to ensure public safety while maintaining fairness and accountability within the judicial system."
