Unpopular opinion: the tragedy in Waukesha isn't a reason to scrap bail reform, nor is it an excuse to add (yet another) law on the books because it makes us feel like we did something, anything, to address the evil.
The alleged killer had been accused of a violent act and had a history of not showing up for court dates - the system AS IS should have prevented his low bail. It was human, not systematic, error.
He's from the wrong party (from my POV) but the DA is right: we don't need NON- violent defendants languishing in jail, unable to make bail.
