Intelligence

JSS staff reviews materials and works to continuously disseminate information and links to the Violent Crime Reduction Operations Guide (VCROG).
JSS also works with the grantees to get started on the VCROG, with 33 total VCROG assessment accounts made for grantees (1 per grant site), and eight additional accounts made in this reporting period.

JSS continues to explore and to document digital evidence management integration of BWC footage for use in law enforcement operations, including investigations. This effort is informed by and supports the work of Category 3 grantees.

JSS is developing field-ready training curricula for BWC implementation, and documenting how law enforcement agencies are using BWC footage in training of recruits and for in-service training. This effort is informed by and supports Category 5 Demonstration grantees.

Assessing, documenting, and evaluating artificial intelligence (AI) integrations with BWC as it plays a role in tagging videos, creating transcripts, developing drafts of reports, assessing officer performance and enhancing digital evidence management.

JSS developed a comprehensive TTA and research plan for prosecutor grantees. Digital Evidence Management (DEM) encompasses a wide variety of devices, technologies, tools, and data, particularly as they relate to the criminal justice system. For the purposes of this TTA effort, JSS is focusing on the key issues that exist for prosecutor offices.
