Working with my partner @Crimealytics, we wrote in the @USATODAY about the critical need to revolutionize how we collect, process, and disseminate all criminal justice data - highlighting crime data's deficiencies in the process. Enjoy! https://t.co/ZOOeyLtnp0

[Ben Horwitz @IT4Policy]

Very nice interview by @Crimealytics explaining crime data and what we do and don’t understand. https://t.co/J3BKb0dAku

Just arrived here in Dallas for #IACP2022. Can’t wait to see old friends and colleagues, and make some new ones. Let me know if you’re here and we can meet up.

[John Arnold @johnarnold]

With the caveat that crime data in the US is a mess so we don't even know the number of homicides that happened last year, the best near real-time data shows the murder rate has plateaued and may even be falling, though from much higher levels than 2019.

@PeterMoskos This was one of my core missions at NOPD. Paperwork and burden reductions. Electronic warrants, streamline workflows, etc. They all make a big difference, especially for a supervisors workload. Leads to a more efficient department, better supervision, etc

[Ben Horwitz @IT4Policy]

Those interested in the data world, join a great team at CalData working with fellow @noladatacenter alum @JoyBonaguro!

Nearing the Jail Data Initiative site launch (led by @orionjtaylor).

Daily facility-level jail data available to view/download for 1,319 jails (subsets available over longer time periods); options to aggregate/filter/make pdfs. Individual-level data available via signed DUA.

[Asheley Van Ness @asheleyvn]

We should be alarmed that the FBI’s data gap will make it harder to analyze 2021 crime trends, including homicides

@ChiefPaulNoel Honor to be part of this team. We will miss you.

[Ben Horwitz @IT4Policy]

Proud to work with @mo_mcgough and the @policingproject on Health Check, including thinking through how to develop ways to measure these critical aspects of policing.
