“Data is a key part of building trust between law enforcement, the district attorney’s office, and the public. If there are metrics in the data that raise questions, especially along the lines of racial disparities, it’s important to call the authorities on the carpet. It’s so important to be able to see problems and make changes based on data.”

“It’s important to have honest information about what’s taking place behind the closed doors of the D.A.’s office. This is a process—being transparent, shifting paradigms, it’s a huge undertaking and a step in the right direction.”

“This is my dashboard, and it will be a living work of art for our community.”

“This opportunity for the community to get more involved with the D.A.’s office is wonderful. The more information we have, the better.”

“We appreciate the openness of the D.A.’s office to engage with and listen to community members and advocates around its policies and data. We look forward to increased transparency and data-informed policy-decisions that will improve public safety and outcomes for individuals involved in the criminal legal system.”

“It has been great working with the Community Advisory Board over the past few years. I commend DA Hillar Moore for his commitment to evidence-based and data-focused policies to engage and help create stronger communities. Transparency leads to greater accountability throughout our criminal justice system and is critical to maintain public safety.”
