This paper -- Bipartisan Bail Reform -- is my attempt to show a path toward true pretrial justice. Among other things, the paper moves away from a static list of pretrial limited improvements to focus on: (1) collaboration, (2) education, and (3) crafting a safe, fair, and intentional release and detention system to replace a random money-based release and detention system. This is done so that jurisdictions can come up with their own "crucial" improvements to the pretrial process (including "out-of-the-box" holistic solutions), but with the recognition that they will likely be forced to create an intentional system as money-based detention slowly goes away. Because the field is used to more static lists, however, I also include a document here showing various lists of pretrial improvements over the last 100 years. I include commentary and themes concerning these lists in that document.  

Overall, the main paper updates many of my older papers so that they are current to 2025, clears up persistent misconceptions I see in the field, defines certain terms and phrases like "bail reform" (which is overused), and sets certain pretrial goals.
