Abstract: As New York State (NYS) bail reform continues to instigate debates over its social impact, this study aims to examine 1) whether bail reform moderates the impact of pretrial detention on probability of conviction, and 2) whether such moderating effect differs by region between New York City (NYC) and non-New York City (non-NYC).
