For 2 hours, Brandon Campo and his wife walked on foot just to reach the courthouse. He arrived wearing a shirt and tie prepared to defend himself, only to discover something almost unbelievable. Brandon had been arrested more than a month earlier. He had paid $1,000 in cash bail and spent weeks obeying court-ordered bond conditions, but prosecutors still hadn't filed a single criminal charge against him. The district attorney explained that his office was waiting for complete police reports before moving forward. But the judge wasn't convinced. She questioned how the court could restrict a man's freedom, hold his money, and threaten him with bond violations when he hadn't even been formally charged. Then the argument became heated. The judge called the delay completely outrageous and warned that the county's entire arrest and bond process was about to change. But before ending the hearing, she made an immediate decision.
