The mission of pretrial services is twofold:  to investigate and inform the Court regarding the release or detention of defendants arrested for a federal criminal offense, and if release is recommended, recommend appropriate conditions of release; and, once on supervision, to implement and monitor compliance with conditions of release using strategies that are sufficient, but no more restrictive, than necessary to execute the Court's order.  Pretrial supervision practices are designed to address a defendant's risk of nonappearance and any danger posed to the community. Pretrial services has the fundamental goal of preventing unnecessary detention when conditions of release are available to reasonable ensure a defendant's appearance in court and the safety of the community.  The desired outcome of pretrial supervision is to have the defendant successfully complete the period of supervision by complying with conditions of release, not violating any new laws, appear for all scheduled court hearings, and report for service of any sentence of imprisonment imposed.
