Information For Media

Crime reporting is a staple of media coverage, yet it often relies on anecdotes without support from data or evidence. Use these resources to serve as a watchdog by reporting how well pretrial systems uphold the presumption of innocence and due process. Reporters can expose whether a system provides people with equal or unequal treatment under the law. And they can help people understand how well their public institutions uphold the law by giving context and not accepting single-sourced stories.
