The correct answer highlights a significant concern in the bail process regarding a defendant’s actions after being granted release. A release order can indeed be revoked if the accused engages in new severe criminal activity. This situation presents a clear risk to public safety and undermines the conditions under which the original release was granted. Severe criminal activity indicates that the defendant poses a greater risk and does not respect the parameters set by the court when they were released.

In contrast, a minor violation of bail terms, the defendant’s consent, or arriving late to court may not inherently warrant revoking bail, as these may be viewed as less serious breaches of the bail agreement. Minor violations could lead to warnings or other penalties but wouldn't necessarily endanger the conditions of the release. Consent from the defendant typically indicates cooperation, and being late to court, while frustrating for the judicial system, does not represent a fundamental threat to justice or public safety.
