Escape / Bail Jumping in Genesee County
83 cases · Genesee County Courts · DCJS Data
Escape and bail jumping cases in Genesee County result in conviction far more often than statewide patterns suggest. With an 83.8 percent conviction rate compared to a statewide dismissal rate of 23 percent, defendants face significantly steeper odds in this county. Only 16.2 percent of cases are dismissed locally—6.8 percentage points below the state average—and no acquittals occurred in the 83 cases reviewed. However, dismissals have surged dramatically over the past five years, rising from zero percent in 2019 to 30.8 percent by the most recent year, indicating a meaningful shift in how prosecutors or courts are handling these charges.
About thirty percent of charges are reduced to lesser offenses, with drug possession accounting for nearly three-quarters of those reductions. For those convicted, jail sentences are most common at 35.1 percent, followed by prison time at 17.5 percent. Pretrial release happens in about two-thirds of cases: roughly one-third receive release on their own recognizance, and another third have bail set (with a median of $1.00), though 13.6 percent face remand without release. Median time to disposition runs 155 days.
Dismissal rate includes judicial dismissals and cases dismissed in the interest of justice. Conviction rate includes guilty pleas and findings of guilt at trial. Avg duration measures arraignment to final disposition. Data sourced from New York DCJS Pretrial Release Data. Last updated: March 2026
