You are living in the past.

This has been going in NYC since:

As part of the New York State Fiscal Year (SFY) Budget for 2019–2020, passed on April 1, 2019, cash bail was eliminated for most misdemeanor and non-violent felony charges, including stalking, assault without serious injury, burglary, many drug offenses, and some categories of arson and robbery.

Effective February 21, 2018, the District Attorney will ordinarily no longer ask for cash bail for the following misdemeanors and felonies. All representatives of the District Attorney will be expected to abide by this presumption. Where justice requires, there is discretion to go against this presumption.
