Crown Attorney John E, Sampson, who volunteered to conduct the experiment, said in an interview that of 68 persons released on their own recogni- zance during a six-month period from June to December last year, only one failed to make his scheduled court appearance. And that person had been ar- rested for another offence in an- other city prior to his appear- ance in a Kingston court. When arrested, he had a copy of the The experiment arose from a request by Attorney-General A. A..Wishart ta the province's Crown attorneys to help mod- ernize the bail system. Mr. Sampson voiumiecirca 1G CS Frontenac County's experimen and recruited Lt.-Col. L. J. Flynn and. Lt.-Col. 0. A. Earl, both retired, to serve on a bail assessment committee. Lt.-Col.

When less-serious charges such as 'impaired driving are conceimed, a j ti rte peace makes the decision and release without bail is almost automatic. "Essentially, the system is to) make the law equal for all," said Mr. Sampson. "We are try- ing to insure that a man isn't unduly penalized by serving time before he comes to trial just because he hasn't the money to raise bail." But statistics indicate there is) also a saving to the community because of the reduced number of mouths to feed at jails. Dur- juouce the bail Frontenac County Jan was #73.
