Shelby County Sheriff's Office and District
Attorney’s Office will use Evidencentral to manage growing volumes
of digital evidence so agencies can focus on investigating and
prosecuting cases
Regulatory News:
NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) today announced that the
Shelby County (Alabama) Commission, on behalf of the Shelby County
Sheriff's Office and the Shelby County District Attorney’s Office,
has selected NICE’s Evidencentral platform to transform the
County’s management of digital evidence. Through their deployment
of Evidencentral, the County’s Public Safety and Justice agencies
aim to eliminate manual work associated with managing digital
evidence so they can ensure timelier justice by focusing attention
exclusively on investigating and prosecuting cases.
The Shelby County Sheriff's Office and the Shelby County
District Attorney’s Office collaborate on thousands of
investigations and prosecutions annually. Evidencentral will
streamline the collaborative criminal justice process, while
improving overall effectiveness of investigations and prosecutions,
by automatically pulling in digital evidence from connected
systems, making it easier to crowdsource evidence from citizens,
eliminating manual and redundant processes, automatically
transcoding video into a playable format, and making it possible to
share evidence via a secure, trackable, digital process.
Phil Burns, Chief Operating Officer, Shelby County, said,
“Shelby County invests in technologies that maximize ROI and use of
taxpayer funds. Evidencentral is a gamechanger in this regard
because it’s going to remove the daily blocking and tackling issues
of managing digital evidence so our lead attorneys and
investigators can be more efficient and focus on core competencies
of investigating and prosecuting cases.”
“Digital evidence has grown ten-fold over the last five years,
with body-worn video, in-car video, interview room recording and
other video and cell phone evidence being added to the mix,” said
Shelby County Sheriff John Samaniego. “Today, investigators
spend an inordinate amount of time collecting, sorting and prepping
evidence to share for discovery. In addition to removing the burden
of thumb drives and discs, Evidencentral’s cloud-based platform and
automated workflows are going to streamline the entire case
building process for investigators because they’ll be able to
manage all of their digital evidence, more efficiently, in one
place.”
Shelby County District Attorney Matt Casey added, “Our
goal is to provide justice for victims of crime. With Evidencentral
our prosecutors will be able to focus on the legal aspects of the
case without having to waste time on the logistics involved in
managing digital evidence. Evidencentral’s ability to put evidence
into context on timelines and maps will be especially helpful in
preparing for trial and presenting cases to juries. Beyond helping
us do everything faster, Evidencentral has the potential to change
the caliber of our prosecutions too.”
Chris Wooten, Executive Vice President, NICE, said,
“Public safety and criminal justice agencies for entire cities,
counties and states are turning to NICE as the clear digital
evidence management leader. With Evidencentral, they’re able to
find the truth in digital evidence faster and deliver swifter
justice for victims of crime.”
