A federal arrestee in a drug trafficking case involving a few kilos of cocaine was entitled to an early hearing concerning the setting of bail
The federal prosecutor failed to ask for the hearing within the statutorily allowed time and failed to ask for a continuance to allow the bail hearing to be held at a later date. The defendant requested relief from the failure to hold the federally required bail hearing within the statutorily defined period of time. The remedy to which the drug trafficking defendant should be granted A) consists of admitting the defendant to an appropriate bail since the penalty to the government for failure to comply with the bail statute is the automatic granting of bail. B) involves giving the defendant release upon his or her oral promise to return for all appropriate judicial proceedings that also serves as a penalty on the government for failing to obey the law. C) involves a reduction of any eventual sentence by the number of days the bail hearing was illegally denied. D) consists of holding the required hearing late, but allowing each side to make any arguments or motions that they could have made had the bail hearing been held in a timely fashion. The government will suffer no penalty for failing to comply with the law. E) none of the above constitute a correct response.
