New York City police cracked down on ticket evasion and the suspect was released
"Just a few days ago. He was arrested for robbery, arrested, released, recidivist, arrested, released, recidivist... Now he returned to the street and decided not to pay the fare." Adams said, "the MRT police could have arrested him for ticket evasion, but instead of doing so, they asked him to leave. His response was what we saw in the video."
"(the suspect) completely ignored public safety, not only the public safety of the MRT police, but also the public safety of the people robbed by him." Adams pointed out and once again called for a review of the bail reform to prevent violent criminals from returning to the streets.

Based on the given scenario, we can see that a suspect has been arrested for tax evasion and was granted bail and which he proceeded to commit more serious crimes.

What is Bail Reform?

This refers to the laws and edicts that are made about the bail conditions which a suspect must meet before he is released, pending full investigations and a court sentence.

Hence, we can see that as a result of the actions of the suspect, Mr. Adams is calling for bail reforms in order to make it more difficult for arrested offenders to have an easy release from police custody.

Therefore, we can see that if stricter bail conditions were in place, the suspect would have remained in police custody or in a holding cell and kept away from being a danger to the public.
