central booking and intake center – release reviews

Central booking and intake centers are facilities where individuals who have been arrested are processed and held until their court hearing or arraignment. Release reviews are conducted at these facilities to determine if an individual is eligible for release on bail or on their own recognizance. During a release review, factors such as the seriousness of the offense, the individual's criminal history, and the likelihood of them appearing for their court date are taken into consideration. If it is determined that an individual is eligible for release, they may be allowed to leave the facility until their court appearance.
