Title: The Intelligence-Driven Prosecution Model: A Case Study in the New York County District Attorney’s Office

Summary: Designed and implemented by the New York County District Attorney's Office (DANY), the Intelligence-Driven Prosecution Model (IDPM) is a novel prosecutorial strategy rooted in the rigorous collection of background information about the people, places, and problems driving crime in specific neighborhoods. Through enhanced information gathering— including close coordination with local law enforcement and robust community outreach— the IDPM intends to facilitate improved prosecutorial decision-making. Though technologycentered intelligence collection concerning the specific people and places driving crime adds a unique dimension to data analysis, the model is better understood as a logical extension of earlier community prosecution initiatives dating back to the late 1980s and 1990s. With funding from the U.S. Bureau of Justice Assistance, this study aims to document how the IDPM operates, and explore the model's implementation and effects in New York County, known more widely as the borough of Manhattan. Study methods included intensive document review, interviews with key District Attorney's Office staff and community stakeholders, a quantitative survey of assistant district attorneys regarding their knowledge and use of intelligence gathered in connection with the model, and an impact analysis concerning the effects of the model on bail recommendations, charging, case disposition, and sentencing outcomes.
