Abstract:
JusticeWeb was created to give the criminal justice community a more comprehensive and accurate view of the jail population. The status of inmates, their charges, bail, and other factors are constantly changing. JusticeWeb provides the ability to stay on top of this critical information. In addition, JusticeWeb provides access to over 2,000 users in over 150 agencies in two states to consolidate jail booking information, court case information and death records from 30 agencies in 9 counties. JusticeWeb was also created to provide criminal history information. One of the driving factors to consolidate this information was so law enforcement and judges could determine domestic violence case information on suspects and defendants. The system automatically notifies Children Services if any foster care parents are involved in a criminal activity. Prosecutors are notified if an active defendant has had a new arrest or charges in any jurisdiction. Probation officers are notified if their client has had any recent activity. Courts are notified that people are picked up on warrants. Clerks are notified if there are active warrants on people that are recently deceased. Law enforcement has the ability to create lineups from Mugshots that can be used with victims and witnesses to identify suspects.
