 1746         907.041 Pretrial detention and release.—
 1747         (4) PRETRIAL DETENTION.—
 1748         (c) The court may order pretrial detention if it finds a
 1749  substantial probability, based on a defendant’s past and present
 1750  patterns of behavior, the criteria in s. 903.046, and any other
 1751  relevant facts, that any of the following circumstances exist:
 1752         1. The defendant has previously violated conditions of
 1753  release and that no further conditions of release are reasonably
 1754  likely to assure the defendant’s appearance at subsequent
 1755  proceedings;
 1756         2. The defendant, with the intent to obstruct the judicial
 1757  process, has threatened, intimidated, or injured any victim,
 1758  potential witness, juror, or judicial officer, or has attempted
 1759  or conspired to do so, and that no condition of release will
 1760  reasonably prevent the obstruction of the judicial process;
 1761         3. The defendant is charged with trafficking in controlled
 1762  substances as defined by s. 893.135, that there is a substantial
 1763  probability that the defendant has committed the offense, and
 1764  that no conditions of release will reasonably assure the
 1765  defendant’s appearance at subsequent criminal proceedings;
 1766         4. The defendant is charged with DUI manslaughter, as
 1767  defined by s. 316.193, and that there is a substantial
 1768  probability that the defendant committed the crime and that the
 1769  defendant poses a threat of harm to the community; conditions
 1770  that would support a finding by the court pursuant to this
 1771  subparagraph that the defendant poses a threat of harm to the
 1772  community include, but are not limited to, any of the following:
 1773         a. The defendant has previously been convicted of any crime
 1774  under s. 316.193, or of any crime in any other state or
 1775  territory of the United States that is substantially similar to
 1776  any crime under s. 316.193;
 1777         b. The defendant was driving with a suspended driver
 1778  license when the charged crime was committed; or
 1779         c. The defendant has previously been found guilty of, or
 1780  has had adjudication of guilt withheld for, driving while the
 1781  defendant’s driver license was suspended or revoked in violation
 1782  of s. 322.34;
 1783         5. The defendant poses the threat of harm to the community.
 1784  The court may so conclude, if it finds that the defendant is
 1785  presently charged with a dangerous crime, that there is a
 1786  substantial probability that the defendant committed such crime,
 1787  that the factual circumstances of the crime indicate a disregard
 1788  for the safety of the community, and that there are no
 1789  conditions of release reasonably sufficient to protect the
 1790  community from the risk of physical harm to persons;
 1791         6. The defendant was on probation, parole, or other release
 1792  pending completion of sentence or on pretrial release for a
 1793  dangerous crime at the time the current offense was committed;
 1794         7. The defendant has violated one or more conditions of
 1795  pretrial release or bond for the offense currently before the
 1796  court and the violation, in the discretion of the court,
 1797  supports a finding that no conditions of release can reasonably
 1798  protect the community from risk of physical harm to persons or
 1799  assure the presence of the accused at trial; or
 1800         8.a. The defendant has ever been sentenced pursuant to s.
 1801  775.082(8) s. 775.082(9) or s. 775.084 as a prison releasee
 1802  reoffender, habitual violent felony offender, three-time violent
 1803  felony offender, or violent career criminal, or the state
 1804  attorney files a notice seeking that the defendant be sentenced
 1805  pursuant to s. 775.082(8) s. 775.082(9) or s. 775.084, as a
 1806  prison releasee reoffender, habitual violent felony offender,
 1807  three-time violent felony offender, or violent career criminal;
 1808         b. There is a substantial probability that the defendant
 1809  committed the offense; and
 1810         c. There are no conditions of release that can reasonably
 1811  protect the community from risk of physical harm or ensure the
 1812  presence of the accused at trial.

 1814  Statutes, is amended to read:
