Translating Vision into ActionBy Dwayne Campbell, Mecklenburg County
At our last Board meeting inMay, we adopted a set of focusareas, providing us the strategicfocus for the organization. Thesefour focus areas are:
Represent ConstituencyInform Constituents/CommunicateReality Check forIndustryDrive Best Practices
The Board established avision for the organization,which is “Public Safety in theUnited States will be enhanceddue to the contributions ofJustice Information SharingPractitioners to a more effectiveand efficient sharing ofinformation”. Our missionundergirds this vision, which is“To provide leadership to thecommunity of JusticeInformation Sharing Practitionersin order to enhance the sharingof information across all levels ofgovernment”.
When broken down, thisvision and mission contains 25elements or values and guiding
principles: honest broker; valueto taxpayer; trusted network;collaboration; “what works;” peerresource; domain expert; integrity;best practices; common solutions;portal force multiplier; validationmechanism; shared standards;reuse; fiscally conscious;economies of scale; catalyst forimprovement; held to higherstandards; “gartner group” ofintegrated justice solutions; bridgejurisdictions; represent the voiceof practitioners; leverageintegration; shorten time tomarket; and integration/implementation solutions.
Now we begin to translateour vision into an action plan bygrouping the 25 elements of theBoard’s vision into three statedgoals:
1. Be established as therecognized practitionervoice for informationsharing solutions.
2. Equip stakeholders tobe more effective justiceinformation sharingpractitioners
3. Promote the sharing and
reutilization ofinformation systemcomponents to minimizeduplication and leveragesuccessful initiatives.
Our stated vision andmission are the foundation ofour strategic direction. Upon thisfoundation, we construct thestrategies we will use to achievethese goals, the specific resultswe intend to achieve as well ashow we will measure ourprogress in achieving thoseresults.

game”. Officers like nothingbetter than showing a photo toa subject and saying “Thisdoesn’t look like you – tell meyour real name.”
The devices are running onVerizon’s super-fast EVDOnetwork that has excellentcoverage throughout the county.Different hardware offerings havebeen tested. The AudioVox‘Harrier’ was launched recentlyand is proving to be user-friendlyand reliable.
The PDAs make field officersmore efficient by saving timewith fewer trips back to thestation to identify a subject. Timeon surveillance is moreproductive since officers can runpersons and vehicles and“connect the dots” of a case.
Officers have tried a ‘side byside’ comparison of waiting foran inquiry dispatcher vs.querying the PDA themselves,and the PDA usually wins therace. Officers can view datawithout dispatcher interventionand appreciate being able to dotheir own analysis.
This project has been fundedby the BorderSafe grant andARJIS plans to expanddeployment to more officers andadditional agencies.
“Getting the Right Information to theRight Person at the Right Time”
The Automated RegionalJustice Information System(ARJIS) has been testing wirelessaccess to critical lawenforcement data by providing75 personal data assistants(PDAs) to local, state, and federallaw enforcement officersthroughout the San Diego, Calif.region.
The project has beentremendously successful andtesters have shared manyinstances where havinginformation and photosaccessible in the field using PDAshave made a crucial difference intheir operations.
Testers come from 15different agencies and task forcesand do various jobs, includingbike patrol, horse patrol, jointterrorism task force, night viceofficers, surveillance teams,community policing officers,warrant teams and others whoare often away from theirvehicles and have frequentpublic contact.

Streamlining the Booking to Initial Appearance CourtProcesses
IntroductionThe Maricopa County
(Arizona) Integrated CriminalJustice Information System(ICJIS) Agency reached amilestone this past summer withthe completion of a majorintegration project that involvedthe Sheriff’s Office, MaricopaCounty’s Superior Court andICJIS. This project linked thenew on-line Pre-Booking System,developed by the MaricopaCounty’s Sheriff’s Office, with theCommon Case NumberApplication and the InitialAppearance Court’s IntegratedCourt Information System(iCIS). It’s purpose is to provideaccurate and timely data that issharable with all justice agenciesinvolved with the case process.
The ProblemThe process, from arrest to
booking to acceptance into aMaricopa County jail to a hearingat the Initial Appearance Court,relied on a very paper intense
process that used error-pronehand-written forms (forexample, illegible information ormissing information) thatrequired “sneaker-net” interfacesand multiple data entries of thesame data. To begin the effort offixing the process, multipleprojects were launched in severalagencies and then wereintegrated along key businessprocesses.
The pieces to the Booking-to-Initial Appearance integrationpuzzle:
Pre-Booking System (PBS) – Thiscapstone system was developedby the Maricopa County Sheriff’sOffice using the ICJISConvergent Architecture toolsand support. It provides a singlepoint of entry for booking data.This data is directly entered bythe booking officer. A set ofcomplex business rules areapplied to guide the officerthrough the booking processand to ensure that validinformation is being captured.
Single point of editeddata entryElectronic distributionof quality data to theCourts and attorneysConsistent bookingdata in all systems andagenciesReduced jail bookingtime for officers andstaff
Less paperwork andadministrativeoverhead for arrestingofficers
Common Case Number (CCN)Application – The CCN is theunique common identifierassigned to a criminal incident,which is recognized and usedwithin and between all MaricopaCounty Justice Agencies.
The assignment can occur atdifferent points in the case flowprocess and within differentagencies within MaricopaCounty. It provides a commonand recognized link in order tofacilitate the management andtracking of all criminal cases asthey move through the criminaljustice process and betweenJustice Agencies.
This capability supports allaspects of the justice managementprocess, including lawyers, judges,court administrators, clerks,defendants, and victims.
Provides a valid andunique common casenumber to a requestingagency.Maintains the integrityof a common casenumber whenever theapplication interfaceswith an agency withregard to a commoncase number (e.g. casestatus update).

Generates a product(e.g., a unique CCN;completes an updatetransaction) only whenrequested by a validagency submitting avalid request.It provides an efficientand secure interface tovalid Justice Agencysystems essential toachieving the CCNApplication purpose.It provides a value-addedenterprise function thatfacilitates caseinformation integrationand tracking amongJustice Agencies as thestatus of cases change.
Electronic Form IV Application –The Maricopa County Form IVprovides the IA Court HearingOfficer with the probable causestatement and informationneeded to make releasedecisions. Prior to theimplementation of theelectronic version, this data washand written by the arrestingofficer and was either faxed orhand-carried to the staff in theInitial Appearance Court inpreparation for the defendant’sinitial court hearing. As is thecase with most hand-writtenforms, it suffered from the usualproblems of either incomplete orinaccurate data entry, or illegibleentries. In addition, the paperform necessitated extra handling(for example, faxing, humantransfer, and copying).
Since the same officer who
enters the booking informationalso completes the Form IVstatement, an electronic versionof this Form IV was developed,with ICJIS support, as a modulewithin the Pre-Booking System.This provided a number ofadvantages:
Some of the dataelements (for exampledefendant name, dateof birth, charge, arrestand location) requiredfor the Pre-Bookingprocess were the sameused on the Form IVstatement. Therefore,these only needed to becaptured once and usedto complete this form.It eliminated theincomplete and error-prone hand-writtenforms.By collecting the dataonly one time in anaccurate and consistentform, the data can betransferred reliably tomultiple justice agencysystems (for examplethe county attorney orSuperior Court).If an agency has a needto generate a printedcopy, then it can do solocally but from theoriginal reliable datasource.It greatly reduces anofficer’s paperwork andresults in less papertransfer to the Courts.
The Role of XML and GJXDM –Another goal in this project wasto begin using XML, andspecifically the Global Justice
XML (GJXDM), as the means forformatting the data being sharedamong the Justice Agencies. Thisbegan a process which could beleveraged going forward. Someof the benefits in doing this were:
The use of commonvocabulary (GJXDM) thatis understood system tosystem, enables sharing ofdata and reuse in multipleapplications andpurposes such as insertsinto databases or thecreation of forms.Utilizing standard XMLtags and commondefinitions clearlycommunicates whatinformation is beingtransmitted.The GJXDM removes theburden from agencies toindependently createseparate, individualexchange standards, andits extensibility providesflexibility to deal withunique requirements (aswas the case with someof the Form IV data).Laying a foundation ofdata based on the GJXDMfacilitates future dataexchange developmentwhich also builds uponthe GJXDM, as developerswill be familiar with thecommon format.By using the GJXDM, thedata can be easilyunderstood and used byagencies outside ofMaricopa County shouldit be made available forcriminal history, incustody or otherpurposes.

The process flow goes as follows:
1. When a person is arrestedthe booking information isentered directly on-line intothe Pre-Booking System bythe arresting officer. This canbe either from the mainCounty Jail Intake at the 4th
Avenue Jail or remotely at amunicipal precinct.
2. Concurrent with thebooking information beingentered on-line, theelectronic Form IV is alsogenerated.
3. If the pre-booking informationis entered remotely, thenwhen either a lawenforcement officer or atransportation officer bringsthe defendant or multiple
defendants to the 4th AvenueJail for a medical examination,the officer can call up theentered booking informationfrom any one of 25 bookingterminals. When the subjecthas cleared the medicalexamination, the officerpresses the Accept Prisonerkey and the requiredelectronic entries for thebooking process arecompleted.
4. One result of this acceptanceprocess is that the CommonCase Number for thisdefendant is automaticallygenerated and stored with thePre-Booking and Form IV data.
5. At this point an automatictransaction is initiated thatsends the electronic Form IV
to the Superior Court’s InitialAppearance Court. If the Pre-Booking System was not ableto generate a common casenumber for any reason, thenthe Court’s iCIS willautomatically request and addthe number to the case file.
6. Finally, a copy of the electronicForm IV along with therequired docket informationwill be prepared anddelivered to the InitialAppearance Court for theappropriate docket hearing.Maricopa County conducts 8docket sessions a day aroundthe clock – 24x7.

Continued from previous page This accurate andreliable data is alsoavailable for reuse byother justice agencies toshare as needed, thussaving them the timeand money it would taketo develop their ownsimilar functionality.By assigning a CommonCase Number at thebooking stage of thisprocess, manual work intracking a case isreduced as that numberis now available from thestart of a case to itsconclusion ordisposition.By using the GJXDMstandard and reusingcommon components,the reliability andaccuracy of the data aregreatly increased thusenhancing andstreamlining the bookingand case trackingprocesses for multiplejurisdictions in MaricopaCounty and the state ofArizona.
Next StepsThe development, integration
and initial implementation ofthese systems was completed inFall 2004. Subsequent expansion,both on-going and planned,
include:Extending the use ofthe Pre-Booking Systemto the city of Phoenixand othermunicipalities inMaricopa County.Currently Phoenix iscompleting theintegration of the Pre-Booking System at allsix of its precincts. Thisis a significantachievement for boththe city of Phoenix andMaricopa County since60-70 percent of arrestsin Maricopa Countyoriginate in the city ofPhoenix.In collaboration withthe state of Arizona,sharing and reusing thePre-Booking Systemcomponents as part ofthe state’s ArrestCapture System arebeing used withnumerousmunicipalities.Providing access to theelectronic Form IV tothe county attorney’sstaff.Creating electronicwarrants that willeliminate additionalpaper processes andhandling.
Maricopa County’s Sheriff’sOffice, Superior Court and ICJISbusiness and technical staffs andsupporting vendors, a number ofpreviously stove-piped andpaper-intensive transactionshave been dramaticallystreamlined resulting insignificant savings and enhancedsafety for the officers andcitizens. The benefits of this aremany and include the following:
Law enforcement officersare relieved ofburdensome paper workand administrative tasks.It is estimated that asmuch as an hour ofofficer andadministrative time issaved per booking withthese new integratedcapabilities.With a requirement for adefendant to be “IA’d”within 24 hours of arrestthese streamlinedprocesses better assurethat this occurs in atimely fashion.The Superior Court cantake advantage ofaccurate and reliabledata that was capturedby the Sheriff’s Office atthe beginning of thearrest process.

Making the Most of What You HaveAn Incremental Approach to Integration
By Ann Lynn Walker, JISP Board Member and Fausto Vega, ICJI Project Manager
The other significant challengefor Tennessee’s efforts is funding.
In the past few years, thestate’s budget was being reducedby 5-10 percent every year. Thisyear there were no cuts acrossthe board. Things are lookingbetter, but there still aren’t largeamounts of money available forlarge integration projects.
IntroductionThere are several challenges
to integrating criminal justiceinformation in Tennessee. Wehave 95 counties and a non-unified court system. Inaddition, many of the state’scriminal justice agencyinformation systems are fairlydated mainframe legacy systems.
That’s why we have taken anincremental approach toworking on our integrationefforts.
Tennessee’s criminal justicecommunity is benefiting from thework of the Integrated CriminalJustice Information (ICJI) projectthat started as a grassroots

The following subcommitteeshave been outlined in theGovernance and are engaged asneeded:
Security, Privacy &Confidentiality PolicyProcess Improvement &Statewide IdentificationNetwork, Infrastructure& Data StandardsFunding, LegislativeReform & PublicRelations
Strategic PlanThe ICJI Strategic Plan
defines the stakeholders, vision,mission and goals of the ICJIproject.
The stakeholders are from allthree branches of the stategovernment, and independentstate agencies like the TennesseeBureau of Investigation and allninety-five local counties forpolice and sheriff offices.
Vision Statement: “Toenhance public safety througheffective integration of criminal
justice information throughoutTennessee by promoting practicesthat improve cost effectiveness,information sharing, and timelyappropriate access to accurateinformation while recognizing theunique contribution of eachcriminal justice component.”
Mission Statement: “TheIntegrated Criminal JusticeInformation Steering Committeewill: (1) Provide a framework tointegrate criminal justiceinformation that is congruent withemerging technologies, national andstate standards, whilecomplementing local informationsharing initiatives. (2) Minimizeredundant criminal justice recordinformation entry while identifyingreengineering and automationopportunities. (3) improve the useof the statewide individualidentification number that wouldlink together all local and statecriminal justice information. (4)Develop methods to secure longterm funding and support forintegrated criminal justice recordand information management.”
ICJI Steering Committee Goals:
1) Encourage the use of uniformdefinitions and codestructures for such items asoffenses, incidents, andcases, as well as commondata definitions.
2) Facilitate collection anddissemination of criminaljustice information.
3) Create standard methods tolink incidents, arrests, courtcases, dispositions, inmates,treatments, victims, custodystatus, and release data.
4) Use existing systems as
gathering of criminal justiceprofessionals who recognizedthe need to coordinate effortswithin the criminal justicesystem. Since the project hasfunding from a Federal grant,the agencies involved have beencommitted to working with oneanother toward the goal ofintegrated criminal justiceinformation sharing.
GovernanceThe ICJI Team embodies a
total collaboration of theexecutive leadership andinformation systems managementof a variety of criminal justiceagencies. During the early stagesof the project, the ICJI Teamfinalized the Governance for theICJI Steering Committee andreceived signed Memorandumsof Understanding from SteeringCommittee members and staffmembers.
The Governance defines theleadership structure of the ICJISteering Committee that iscomprised of representativesfrom the following agencies:

appropriate.5) Establish standards for security, privacy, and
public access.6) Secure alternative funding sources and the
support of champions and key stakeholdersto sustain long-term commitment.
7) Establish performance measurements forevaluation and accountability.
As-Is ModelThe ICJI Team conducted business process
review interviews in 17 counties, within 70 agenciesand with 176 personnel. The ICJI Team publishedthe “As-Is” Model for Tennessee’s justiceinformation exchange. The “As-Is” Model conveysexisting criminal justice processes, informationflows, and data exchanges and identifies potentialbarriers to integration within the followingprocesses: Incident & Investigation, WarrantProcessing, Arrest & Booking, General SessionsCourt, Circuit or Criminal Court, Probation,Correction, and Parole. This document hassignificantly improved the understanding ofTennessee’s criminal justice informationexchanges as a whole. Perhaps most importantly,the “As-Is” Model provides a list of opportunitiesto improve Tennessee’s criminal justiceinformation sharing process. This list is utilizedby the ICJ steering committee when determiningwhat the next project should be and what fundingmay be needed.
Automated Final Disposition ReportingThe ICJI Team developed a concept to
automate Final Disposition submissions andthereby eliminate the need for the manual processand improve the data quality of the criminalhistory records. The Automated Final Dispositionprocess was presented to and then adopted byparticipating agencies at the 2003 FinalDisposition Summit. Over 75 criminal justiceprofessionals attended the Final DispositionSummit. The summit included key participantsfrom Tennessee’s four major metropolitancounties (Shelby, Knox, Hamilton and Davidson)as well as representatives of the Tennessee CourtInformation System (TnCIS).
The ICJI Team worked with our legislative
steering committee members to get a bill passedthat updated the Standardized Procedures forBooking of Arrestees (TCA 8-4-115). Thelegislation promotes electronic Final Dispositionreporting in Tennessee. It was passed on May 19th,2004 and signed by Governor Bredesen on June8, 2004.
The ICJI Team developed a comprehensiveResource Guide for the Automated FinalDisposition reporting project. This guideaddresses technical and procedural issuesregarding the Automated Final Disposition project.Final Disposition reporting is currently beingaccomplished electronically in Davidson,Hamilton and Shelby counties. Knox County isbeing scheduled next for online submissions ofFinal Dispositions. Once all four of these countiesare online, Tennessee will have almost 85% of itsdisposition information reported electronically.There are many benefits that have been realizedfrom this automation:
No need to keep the paper system: the R-84 Green SheetsSave costs on postage and handlingAbility to reallocate staff to other moreimportant assignmentsDiminishes the occurrence of informationbeing lost in the shuffleIncreased accuracy of information byminimizing human error
Criminal history record keeping at the TBI hasimproved. The Automated Final Dispositionproject not only helped Law Enforcement and theCourt Clerks to complete a reporting process, butit has greatly improved the TBI’s ability to updateTennessee’s Criminal History Repository in a moreaccurate and timely manner.
Criminal Justice Web PortalInformation sharing will be improved because
of the design work being done on the CriminalJustice Web Portal. The ICJI Team is proposing aCriminal Justice Web Portal to provide a singlepoint of access for multiple agency data through asecure Web browser. This Portal will eliminatethe need to conduct separate searches across
Continued on next page

various systems to access information for a specificperson. The Portal is being designed with theroles-based security concept in mind with thehighest degree of security and authentication.
Phase I of the Portal will allow ‘read-only’access to Law Enforcement and criminalinvestigators to data provided by: Department ofSafety, Department of Correction, Board ofProbation and Parole, and The Tennessee Bureauof Investigation. We are viewing this phase as aproof-of-concept and hope to secure additionalfunding for future phases based on its benefit tothe criminal justice community.
