274          [(13) In addition to the provisions of Subsections (3) through (12), because of the

276     violent offenders, and the demonstrated increased risk of continued acts of violence subsequent
277     to the release of an offender who has been arrested for domestic violence, it is the finding of
278     the Legislature that domestic violence crimes, as defined in Section 77-36-1, are crimes for
279     which bail may be denied if there is substantial evidence to support the charge, and if the court
280     finds by clear and convincing evidence that the alleged perpetrator would constitute a
281     substantial danger to an alleged victim of domestic violence if released on bail.]
282          [(14) The provisions of this section do]
283          (13) This section does not apply if the [person] individual arrested for the qualifying
