No longer constrained by islands of evidence, Monterey County DA will fulfill its vision of centralizing management of digital evidence in one platform

NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) today announced that the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office in California has selected NICE Justice, one of the AI-powered solutions in NICE’s Evidencentral platform, to fulfill its vision of centralizing management of digital evidence under one platform, and remove the hurdles involved in managing digital evidence. The Monterey County District Attorney’s Office is the fourth prosecutor’s office in California to digitally transform evidence management with NICE Justice.

The cloud-based NICE Justice solution digitally transforms how district attorneys and office staff receive, interact with, manage and share digital evidence. Freed from dealing with discs, drives, emails, and logging into multiple systems to manage and prepare evidence, attorneys and staff can focus on building and presenting compelling cases. NICE Justice also features built-in AI and automation capabilities for object detection, automated case building, video and audio transcription and translation, optical character recognition (OCR), analytics and finding evidence connections.

Jeannine Pacioni, District Attorney for the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office, stated, “The mission of the Monterey County District Attorney's Office is to promote justice and uphold the rights of victims. In our pursuit of justice and the truth, we rely heavily on digital evidence. NICE Justice supports our mission by removing the hurdles involved in managing digital evidence, allowing us to spend more time successfully prosecuting cases.”

Ryan J. McGuirk, Chief Investigator for the Monterey County District Attorney’s Office, said, “With the increasing use of body-worn and in-car cameras, cell phones, video, and home surveillance, digital evidence is now a key component in almost every case. Our goal is to integrate all this evidence into one system. NICE Justice will help us realize this goal by providing a single, centralized platform for collecting, analyzing, organizing, sharing, and storing all digital evidence.”

Chris Wooten, Executive Vice President, NICE, commented, “We’re thrilled to build on our momentum of helping prosecutors digitally transform their evidence management, with the addition of the Monterey County DA. With the breadth and scope of digital evidence growing exponentially, NICE Justice helps prosecutors get to the truth faster.”

The Monterey County DA Office’s staff of 57 attorneys and 27 investigators review over 15,000 felony and misdemeanor cases annually. The Office receives evidence from 15 primary municipal law enforcement agencies, several correctional institutions, and other city, state and federal partners. Evidence is received in a myriad of ways – via email links, on CDs, DVDs, thumb and external hard drives, and via other evidence systems – requiring staff to manually and repeatedly scan, download, and upload files into various shared drives and systems.

NICE Justice simplifies and streamlines the evidence intake process by offering a secure online portal for authorized justice partners to share digital evidence. Uploaded evidence is automatically organized into NICE Justice digital case folders in the cloud and can be viewed immediately. Attorneys are no longer limited by fragmented evidence sources and can easily gather and compile digital evidence and even view and replay videos in chronological order.

Furthermore, NICE Justice includes integrated tools to simplify trial preparation. These tools allow users to create video clips, redact evidence, transcribe and translate audio, and organize evidence on timelines or maps. The solution also provides a quick, secure, and traceable method for sharing discovery with defense attorneys, and other parties requesting evidence copies under applicable law.

NICE Justice also addresses the Office's need to securely maintain digital evidence for customized retention periods. In the past, digital evidence was stored on shared drives, which occasionally had to be purged to make space for new, incoming evidence. NICE Justice solves this problem by enabling the customizable retention of case evidence in a cloud-based solution that is both secure and scalable.
