riveting eulogy will impact public opinion and therefore pressure the Democratic-run legislature to pass pro-safety legislation.
“There’s going to be some course correction because people want something done about the increase in crime,” Savino said. A veteran Albany insider said Jacobs’ support for giving judges more discretion in bail decisions will provide cover for other mainstream Democratics to publicly back pro-safety amendments to the bail law — and for Hochul to seek a compromise.
