Marion Police Scraps Cash Bond Policy for Out of Town Violators
Marion Police Chief Leighton W. Ford told the city council the department will not demand cash bonds or jail out-of-town Iowa residents for minor traffic tickets. He cited fairness and potential problems with cash bonds and noted a recent Des Moines incident where an out-of-town motorist was jailed until a bond could be raised. The policy, clarified for the council, allows returning violators to face trial locally if they fail to show.
