Chicago Police's Strategic Subject List Reportedly Biased Along Racial Lines

The Chicago Police Department reportedly used person-based predictive policing models, including the Strategic Subject List and Crime and Victimization Risk Model, to assign violence-risk scores to hundreds of thousands of residents. Official and media reports alleged that the program gave police a mathematically fragile basis for treating heavily policed residents as future victims or suspects, with Black Chicago residents especially exposed to the consequences of that scoring.
