Not New York, <em>still<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Yes, Hochul got a few more gun charges made bail-or-jail eligible. But they\u2019re not crimes for which many people get arrested in the first place. And judges will be able to jail serial shoplifters (for which retailers will be very grateful), but not chronic offenders of nearly any other crime.<\/p>\n<p>Hate criminals will now risk jail, too, but that\u2019s another small category of arrestees.<\/p>\n<p>The changes to the discovery rules are minimal, and nowhere near enough to reduce the insane paperwork burden that forces prosecutors across the state to drop cases (and has DA offices hemorrhaging staff). The state DAs want $200 million a year to handle this added makework; the budget tosses them about $50 million (out of billions in new spending).<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/04\/hochul-budget-2.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"New York Gov.
