Hierarchical MTE Model Fit
Notes. This figure plots race-specific release rates for the 268 judges in our sample against rates of pretrial misconduct among the set of released defendants. All estimates adjust for court-by-time fixed effects. The figure also plots race-specific curves of best fit implied by our baseline hierarchical MTE model hyperparameter estimates.
