Shelby County District Attorney Steve Mulroy’s Office is developing a public-facing data dashboard that it plans to launch in spring 2024. According to the Daily Memphian, metrics will include the time it takes for cases to resolve, racial disparities in the criminal justice system and recidivism rates, among others still under review. Mulroy’s office has been working on data reform with help from Justice Innovation Lab, a nonprofit focused on “data-informed, human-centered solutions for a more equitable, effective and fair justice system." Vishant Shah, the DA office’s chief data officer, said the data will help with case management and provide accountability and transparency.
