Douglas County District Attorney’s Office Selects NICE Justice to Manage Growing Digital Evidence
NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) today announced that the Douglas County (Georgia) District Attorney’s Office is deploying NICE Justice, one of the solutions in NICE’s Evidencentral platform, to streamline the criminal justice process through digital transformation. Through its ability to help staff manage growing digital evidence with ease, NICE Justice will support the Douglas County District Attorney’s Office in its mission to seek justice for victims of crime by enabling attorneys to focus their time on successful prosecutions, instead of wasting time on administrative tasks.
The NICE Justice cloud-based digital evidence management solution digitally transforms how district attorneys, investigators, paralegals and office staff receive, interact with, manage and share digital evidence, from beginning to end. Freed from dealing with discs, drives, emails, and logging into multiple systems to manage and prepare evidence, attorneys and staff can focus on building and presenting compelling cases.
Douglas County District Attorney Dalia Racine, said, “Modern technology is generating increasing amounts of digital evidence. It can be a game-changer in terms of understanding what happened at a crime scene, but digesting and processing this ever-growing mountain of digital evidence can be a colossal undertaking. Simply put, digital evidence has outpaced our human capabilities and manual processes used to manage it. With NICE Justice we can spend less time managing digital evidence and more time prosecuting cases. We’re excited to integrate NICE Justice into the vital work we’re doing.”
Chris Wooten, Executive Vice President, NICE, said, “Douglas County now joins many other agencies across the United States which are digitally transforming how they manage digital evidence using NICE Justice. In the fight for justice, digital evidence is a crucial tool in every prosecutor’s arsenal, but as digital evidence continues to grow, it can be difficult to manage. Our market-proven NICE Justice solution gives DA’s offices the capabilities they need to leverage digital evidence for successful prosecutions.”
As one of the largest legal employers in Douglas County, the District Attorney’s Office is managing an ever-increasing felony crime caseload. In 2022, the Office handled over two-thousand cases, some involving large volumes of digital evidence, including camera footage, cell phone and geo-location data, as well as body-worn video. Adding to the complexity, law enforcement agencies each have their own method of sharing digital evidence, which often arrives at the DA’s Office on CDs, DVDs and jump drives. NICE Justice will significantly streamline this intake process by providing a single portal through which all evidence is electronically received and submitted.
Discovery with defense attorneys is also challenging. Each year, Douglas County paralegals spend thousands of hours downloading and copying digital evidence onto physical media and external drives. As evidence is shared with defense, questions invariably arise as to whether materials were sent and received. In addition to supporting various criminal justice information standards, NICE Justice provides accountability and saves time by automating the entire discovery process. Paralegals simply email links to digital case files. The system automatically tracks when evidence is received and opened.
“Ultimately, our mission is to seek justice for victims of crime and to do so with excellence and integrity,” added District Attorney Racine. “In order to achieve our mission in a world where digital evidence is increasing, we must innovate. NICE Justice will help us be nimbler and quicker in processing case files, while eliminating the need for paper discovery and digital copies of evidence on CDs and DVDs. With NICE, we will be able to focus more on prosecution and less on administrative and clerical tasks.”
