1Opinion of the Court

JUSTICE TIMMER, opinion of the Court:

¶ 1 Persons charged with sexual assault must not be released on bail if they pose a danger of committing new sexual assaults or other dangerous crimes while awaiting trial. The question here is how this may be accomplished in a manner that furthers this public-safety goal while preserving an accused's constitutionally guaranteed liberty interest.

¶ 2 Article 2, section 22(A)(1), of the Arizona Constitution and A.R.S. § 13-3961(A)(2) categorically prohibit bail for all persons charged with sexual assault if "the proof is evident or the presumption great"…
