In the news they said the arrested guys were going to have bail hearings (on the 12th???) ... considering the National Security seriousness of the charges and information they already have on these guys, I can't imagine any of them being allowed to be released on bail at all. I hope there's no risk of them being released? That would be absolutely insane.

Is the reason that they even have bail hearings AT ALL simply because every person has the right to at least a bail hearing and them's the rules so they have to go through the motions even knowing bail will not be considered?

I've never had to deal with police, courts and law ... only from the side of me calling on the cops for assistance or to report a problem happening, and once had to give a witness report. The criminal side, I know nothing about the processes as I've never had to deal with it.

I don't include my experiences of working in the 5th floor Police Cafeteria in the Winnipeg Safety Building many decades ago ... and oh, yes, I've dated cops
