In our previous CNA Justice Talks podcast, we discussed the impacts of case backlogs on stakeholders system-wide. In this episode, Hildy Saizow leads a discussion with Dr. Andrew Ferguson, Luther Tyus, and Amada Bond on the history of data bias in policing, how predictive policing models can disproportionately inflict harm on underresourced communities, and important considerations for police agencies seeking to mitigate data bias and its harms.

In our previous CNA Justice Talks podcast, we discussed data bias in the justice system. In this episode, Dr. Chip Coldren leads a discussion with Nelson Bunn and Dr. Brian Gaines about the state of case backlogs, the impact of court closures on stakeholders system-wide, and the innovative methods jurisdictions are and have adopted to address their backlogs.

In our previous CNA Justice Talks podcast, we discussed the intersection of sports psychology, law enforcement, and wellness programming. In this episode, Dr. Chip Coldren leads a discussion with Dr. Bryce Peterson and Dr. Jonathan Wender about the use of analytical tools to improve police departments' use of their body-worn camera (BWC) footage. Coldren, Peterson, and Wender discuss how the use of natural language processing and computer vision to analyze BWC footage can aid in enhancing the quality and legitimacy of policing.

In our previous CNA Justice Talks podcast, we discussed the understudied phenomenon of labor trafficking. In this episode, Hildy Saizow leads a discussion with Dr. Thema Monroe-White and Luther Tyus about the definition of data bias, how to understand data bias from a historical lens, the harms in using biased data in present day, and what can be done to mitigate harm while using algorithmic practices in the justice system.

In our previous CNA Justice Talks podcast, we discussed supports provided to victims and survivors of crime, and the gaps in services currently provided to historically marginalized groups. In this episode, Dr. Chip Coldren leads a discussion with Chief Ivonne Roman (ret.), CNA Principal Advisor Tom Woodmansee, and CNA's Senior Research Specialist Monique Jenkins. Coldren, Roman, Woodmansee, and Jenkins discuss the challenges pertaining to recruitment and retention in policing and specific ways agencies can address these challenges.
