[pdf] Cambridgeshire OPCC 28/8/2024 Report When Avoidance Backfires: Interracial Officer-Citizen Dyads and the Consequences for Fleeing Suspects Research suggests that Black citizens who experience an elevated fear of law enforcement frequently engage in avoidance strategies, such as fleeing, when confronted by police. There is also strong reason to speculate that this avoidance behavior commonly transpires when the police officer is White. Problematically, this avoidance strategy may place these citizens at an increased risk for officer use of force as the police seek to subdue fleeing suspects. The current study uses data drawn from the Evaluation of Less-Lethal Technologies on Police Use-of-Force project and a series of logistic regression equations and mediation analysis to determine whether Black suspects are more apt to flee from White police officers than other officer-suspect racial dyads and, because of this fleeing behavior, have a greater likelihood of experiencing force. After controlling for a variety of salient factors, results indicate support for this scenario. Policy implications are discussed.

CTV News (Canada) 28/8/2024 News Intelligent risk management: natural language processing real-time triage of police calls for service Can an intelligent call center improve the deployment of a safe and effective diversified response (e.g., differential police response, coresponse and Alternate First Responders)? This article examines a proof-of-concept intelligent call center for enhanced 911 call processing, at the City of Seattle (Washington, USA). This study employed common commercial technology to 1) transcribe incoming 911 call audio, 2) render a real-time forecast of call risk and 3) visualize the results for personnel handling the call as “intelligent decision support.” This project proves a “human-inthe- loop” application of Machine Learning (ML) can support the professional judgement of experienced human operators with a precise, low-latency forecast of call risk. Further, the demonstrated system is designed to learn. As a diversified response system evolves, statistical feedback is incorporated using the Risk Managed Demand framework. Implications for risk management, the opportunity for diversified response, and the ethics of ML are discussed.
