It's important that you look at history. I think it tells you a lot about what future behaviours are going to be. That's important, especially in cases of intimate partner violence.
One of the speakers talked about sureties. There are some things we ask when we're doing our bail notification, when we're talking to victims prior to bail court. Who is a good surety? Who is not a good surety? Who do you feel is not able to do that public duty of being the bailer in the community? I think it's important that we listen to victims in those areas because they know the people in the offender's life, especially with intimate partner violence, and they know who might be appropriate and who isn't appropriate.
I also agree that the use of the estreatment hearings would go a long way if people found out it was going to cost them money or some other consequence if they didn't do their job to ensure that the offender remained on their conditions.
