People v. Cousins

Summary

The court held that the State failed to present clear and convincing evidence that no condition or combination of conditions could mitigate the danger supporting pretrial detention. Because the State had a full opportunity to present its case and did not meet its burden, the appropriate remedy was not a second detention hearing but a hearing on the least restrictive conditions of release. The appellate court's judgment was therefore affirmed in part, reversed in part, and remanded with directions.
