FAQ
Prosecutors can offer evidence of aggravating factors that would merit a harsh sentence during trial. Criminal statutes often identify specific factors that should result in harsher punishments. A common aggravating factor is a prior record of similar convictions.
Aggravating factors can include facts or circumstances that have a separate sentencing enhancement provided for by statute, i.e. under the Three Strikes Law, a prior violent felony, a prior prison sentence within the last five years or a high blood alcohol content in a DUI.
Some generally recognized aggravating circumstances include heinousness of the crime, lack of remorse, and prior conviction of another crime.
Your case can be dropped while you're on bail.
An aggravated sentence is one that is higher than the default. An excellent example of this is if someone attempts to stab another person with a knife during a fight. The individual is convicted of assault with a deadly weapon. Therefore, a sentence of two, three, or four years is possible.
Grievous bodily harm or wounding: the maximum sentence is five years' custody. if the assault is racially or religiously aggravated, the maximum sentence is seven years' custody. if the assault was committed with intent to cause GBH/wounding then the maximum sentence is life imprisonment.
Bailing someone out of jail who has a history of untrustworthy behavior can create headaches. You're essentially agreeing to put up 10 percent of a bail bond that could be tens of thousands — or even hundreds of thousands — of dollars. If they fail to show, then you went to all that extra trouble for nothing.
Factors That Influence Bail Cost Bail of $500,000 or more is not uncommon for serious crimes such as murder, rape, or aggravated assault. It is often based on the type and severity of the charges in criminal defense, as well as the defendant's criminal history and flight risk.
Bail for assault charges in New York can vary greatly depending on the degree in which somebody is charged, his or her criminal or bench warrant history, and the defendant's ties to New York. Certainly, this number can range anywhere from $5,000 to $250,000.
Steep Bail for Very Serious Crimes While felonies have a wide range of bail amounts, the most serious, violent, or dangerous crimes often have bail set at $100,000 or higher. Some examples include: Murder: $1 million or more. Rape: Starting around $250,000 for rape charges.
