Скачать или смотреть Investigate This! Press Briefing on Deaths in Jails and Prisons

Deaths that occur in U.S. jails and prisons are largely underreported. That’s because reporting requirements are not enforced federally or in most states. Without accurate data, circumstances leading to unnatural deaths can continue unchecked, including instances of medical negligence and excessive use-of-force. Many researchers, lawmakers and advocates view this issue as a public health emergency.

So, The Marshall Project brought together several national experts to discuss insights from their data collection and academic research, including:

Andrea Armstrong, Dr. Norman C. Francis Distinguished Professor of Law, Loyola University New Orleans
Terence Keel, Professor of Human Biology and Society, University of California Los Angeles
Orion Taylor, Lead Data Scientist at the Public Safety Lab (NYU & Social Science Research Council)

This conversation is on-the-record, and we encourage local journalists to use quotes and sound bites for their reporting on this topic.

Marshall Project Staff Writer Brittany Hailer and Senior Data Reporter Anna Flagg moderated the event. They also created a reporting toolkit with Partnership and Engagement Associate Michelle Billman: https://www.themarshallproject.org/20...
