Race-Blind
Charging Solution
Transforming Fairness in the Criminal Justice System
Overview
Unconscious bias can subtly influence decisions within the criminal justice system, often despite the best intentions of those involved. California's Penal Code Section 741 mandates race-blind charging processes to mitigate this bias. Our innovative solution ensures compliance with these regulations while streamlining the redaction and evaluation process, making it efficient, accurate, and transparent.
