Compensation ... you gotta be kidding But I guess you aren't .... but aren't bail hearings held the next day after the arrest? I just like the simple old-fashioned way: legislators make the laws, police bust people, courts judge them .... and the appeal courts and the Supreme Court keep an eye on the whole process. A clear division of powers and responsibilites.
