Section 45-41-83.14 Legislative intent; construction; failure to abide by conditions. For programs utilizing supervised preadjudication release, it is the intent of the Legislature that this part shall be a guide to courts in Lee County to ensure that no eligible person is needlessly detained in the county jail because of his or her personal economic circumstances or inability to post bail, provided that his or her release shall not be contrary to the public interest or a danger to the public at large, and also shall serve the purpose of assuring the presence of the defendant at trial. It is not the intent of the Legislature that this part be so liberally construed as to allow the indiscriminate release of accused persons.
