"Prosecuting everything does not improve #community well-being and does not deliver on the promise of #justice," write @BesikiLuka, @RRDunlea, @ResLegalDiva, and @don_stemen.

[Rebecca Dunlea @RRDunlea]

Ever wonder how often prosecutors reject and dismiss cases? We did. @ThePPIs collected data for 15 offices across the country. Quite a few different levels of selectivity. Check it out!

[Prosecutorial Performance Indicators @ThePPIs]

#BreakingNews: @ThePPIs released a new report looking at the rates that prosecutors reject and dismiss cases. The findings surprised us! #data #transparency #prosecution. https://t.co/X0GostG9A8

Congrats to the very talented @MariaEArndt1 on this big next step!!

[Fair and Just Prosecution @fjp_org]

In Oregon, @MultCoDA @DAMikeSchmidt recently released 11 new data dashboards in partnership with @ThePPIs to provide transparency to the public about the work his office is doing and to help understand and address racial disparities. https://t.co/FEmK3oab2J

[Rebecca Dunlea @RRDunlea]

Improving the culture of prosecution starts with understanding what that culture already is. Kudos to @MultCoDA on this important step toward transparency, and congrats to @kshenderson7 on this informative report! @ThePPIs @jsp_partners @safety_justice

[Rebecca Dunlea @RRDunlea]

@Ernesto_LopezJr @ThePPIs Interesting question, and no they generally did not! There seemed to be a greater focus in these interviews on social/structural reasons than legal for colorblind policy and practice.

[Rebecca Dunlea @RRDunlea]

New qualitative article out in Criminology! Prosecutors embrace colorblindness in their work, and race-neutral cultural scripts like “Every case is unique” and “We only prosecute what the police bring to us” reinforce that approach. @ThePPIs https://t.co/OCjeB1ewmA

@DrMeldrum @QCriminology @FIUDeptCCJ Thanks for the shoutout! This thread just gave me my reading list for the next year…

[Besiki Luka Kutateladze @BesikiLuka]

@ThePPIs @ResLegalDiva @LinLiu76028941 @RRDunlea Thx everyone. Last thought: as an elected prosecutor, plan to spend at least 3 years building data culture. Lead by example by describing how you use data to find solutions. Be persistent in messaging about the importance of checking trends monthly. Stay engaged with communities
