An Act relative to clarity and consistency for the Justice Reinvestment Oversight Board

H 4465 requires Massachusetts criminal justice agencies - including trial courts, probation services, parole boards, the Department of Correction, county jails, and district attorneys - to standardize data collection on individuals entering the system. Agencies must use unique statewide identifiers for cross-tracking, collect demographic details (race, ethnicity, gender, age), offense information, and recidivism rates (re-arrest, reconviction, reincarceration) tracked over 1-3 years. Data must be anonymized and publicly accessible via online portals, with annual reports published by the Executive Office of Public Safety. The Justice Reinvestment Oversight Board will review compliance quarterly and submit annual reports to lawmakers on data collection and policy adherence.
