Hey Chicago media - @Chicago_Police walked away a couple years ago from @UChiUrbanLabs attempt to do a staffing study. They have no interest in science based decision making - 3 Cs instead: clout, corruption, coverup. It is very simple. crimelab.uchicago.edu/wp-content/upl…

Starting in the fall, there will no longer be any police working as school resource officers in CPS. A report from @CJPJustProj found 10% of large school districts reduced police since 2020 and 27% removed police completely. Read more in @SouthSideWeekly. ow.ly/2rIA50RTIC0
In case you missed our Executive Director’s OpEd in @CrainsChicago last week. Above all else, this traffic stop proves that reform from the consent decree has not made it down to on-the-street engagements where it’s needed most! Don’t believe the rhetoric. chicagobusiness.com/opinion/dexter…
Just Released! CJP’s new report: Cops in Schools: Tracking Nationwide Changes after George Floyd. The report helps you understand how America’s largest cities, including Chicago, shifted their policies on deploying cops in schools after the murder. chicagojustice.org/2024/03/26/cop…

My latest OpEd in @CrainsChicago - science from @OJPNIJ - shows #ShotSpotter didn’t lead to more arrests for violent gun crimes. @Chicago_Police, alt-right alderpeople, & editorial boards demand city keep it. Bad fiscal policy & bad for communities. chicagobusiness.com/opinion/ending…
A great example of the results of CJP’s transparency efforts! More lawsuits coming soon.

“CPD has never taken data collection seriously, and it goes throughout the ranks. It is an institutionalized problem,” says Tracy Siska, founder of the @CJPJustProj, which studies data across the criminal justice system. chicagomissingpersons.com/nobody-cares/

Commentary: What does Chicago's TIF program have to do with crime and violence? chicagobusiness.com/crains-forum-j… via @CrainsChicago @CJPJustProj
Our take on the alt-right criticisms of @Chicago_Police foot & car pursuit policies. Their criticisms ignore the consequences for Chicago’s communities when they go wrong. Chicago paid out $30 million over the last 12 months in settlements & judgments. youtu.be/ySQ4fIUJY_k
Just dropped: latest episode of Good & Bad Justice Journalism. We look at the 15 Qs Chicago media seems unwilling to ask @Chicago_Police Supt. to be Larry Snelling. Communities deserve to know the answers before the city council holds their vote. youtu.be/lRLqFcP3Tzo
New pod episode just dropped featuring Alexandra Block from @ACLUofIL discussing her lawsuit challenging @Chicago_Police use of pretextual traffic stops against minorities to justify a modern version of stop & frisk. chicagojustice.org/2023/08/09/acl…
1st episode of our Alt-Right Justice Report just posted. We analyze @PaulVallas rhetoric in piece for @illinoispolicy discussing @Chicago_Police staffing. Despite all the evidence to how bad militarizing police is he calls for it anyways. youtube.com/watch?v=XFErKF…
