NAPD 2024 Women's Virtual Conference

This presentation will touch on legal developments across the country since the Supreme Court overturned the right to terminate a pregnancy in 2022 in the Dobbs decision. We will discuss constitutional protections for abortion rights, "shield" laws, health information privacy laws, travel bans, and their possible implications for criminal defense work.

"Attorneys now have 45 times more discovery material to review than they did in 2016…." -- Megan Ring, State Public Defender, CO (Colorado Sun, Feb 2024)

This overwhelming increase in discovery comes from the massive increase in digital evidence, including police dashboard and body camera footage, and is having an immense impact on public defense workloads.

This talk by Reduct Video explores how software and AI can help public defenders cut through the massive influx of body-worn camera footage, 911 calls, jail calls, interrogation recordings, and more, so you can hone in on relevant evidence. Fast, timestamped transcription, synced translations, and easy text-based video clipping for court are just a few of the tools that will be included in the demonstration. Reduct also allows you to simultaneously view multiple body-worn camera videos from the same event, enabling you to examine the evidence from all angles. Come chat about how your office is working through audio / video discovery, and see how software and AI can assist you with the process.
