This new report from Scrutinize and RaceNYU is a major step forward in the effort to evaluate New York's judges and hold them accountable. This data shows which judges have been so wildly punitive that appeals courts have repeatedly overturned or reduced their sentences.

2/2 Our methodology is both replicable and scalable, offering a model that can be adopted by other jurisdictions to examine their judicial systems.

You can find the report and explore our findings here: scrutinize.org/excessive-sent…

1/2 NEW: groundbreaking report w/RaceNYU: *Excessive Sentencers*. We use an innovative dataset -- appellate decisions -- to identify judges who imposed such lengthy prison sentences that the appellate court (2-5 judges) felt compelled to reduce them “in the interest of justice.”

Join us on 4/3 for a conversation with Mike and Debbie!
