A Brooklyn judge in Kings County Criminal Court ordered supervised release for a 25-year-old man facing charges including assault and harassment, determining that prosecutors “did not meet the burden” of proof to justify bail. The ruling cited the absence of physical injury to any individual and the minimal value of alleged stolen goods as insufficient grounds for the requested bail.
Kings County Criminal Court Judge Natalie Barros denied a woman facing 16 charges, including second-degree burglary and grand larceny, another opportunity for supervised release, citing a lack of confidence in her compliance and deeming her a flight risk. The decision followed prosecution arguments detailing the accused’s history of non-compliance, which included eight failures to appear and previous violations of supervised release conditions. Bail was subsequently set at $5,000 cash, a $15,000 insurance bond, and a $15,000 partially secured surety bond, despite Public Defender Kristen Eby’s contention that the accused’s Criminal Justice Agency Release Assessment score and potential access to critical services warranted reconsideration.
