How would you interpret the statistics in Table 5.2 on "Race/Ethnicity and Bail Outcomes in King County, Washington" (on p. 334 of
the textbook)?
A There are obvious racial inequalities between the median bail amounts for all groups.
B There are no significant statistical differences between the legally relevant variables listed in the chart.
D
When legally relevant variables are controlled, individuals from racial and ethnic minority groups are less likely to be
released on pretrial supervision.
Individuals from racial and ethnic minority groups are more likely to be released on pretrial supervision if they can pay bail
in cash.
