All suspects were released on their own recognizance under New York State’s Bail Reform Law.
Following the arrests, Sheriff Mike Schiff said he believes that many of these suspects are good candidates for the “Hope, Not Handcuffs” program being proposed by Sullivan County District Attorney Meagan Galligan.
“Unfortunately, we no longer have the leverage that the bail system used to afford us”, said the sheriff. “Hopefully we can find a new way to coax defendants into treatment rather than return them to the streets to get high again and possibly an overdose."
