How has information technology changed the way we monitor criminal
behavior? How has it changed the way we examine patterns of
criminal behavior? How have criminal justice organizations adapted
to using information technology? What is the future of information
in criminal justice? There have been many technical, analytical,
legal, and organizational issues related to advances in computer
and information technology over the past several decades. Given the
substantial investments that federal, state, and local criminal
justice agencies are making in information technology, they now
consider it an integral component of understanding how our criminal
justice system works. Information Technology and the Criminal
Justice System suggests that information technology in criminal
justice will continue to challenge us to think about how we turn
information into knowledge, who can use that knowledge, and for
what purposes. In this text, editor April Pattavina synthesizes the
growing body of research in information technology and criminal
justice. Contributors examine what has been learned from past
experiences, what the current state of IT is in various components
of the criminal justice system, and what challenges lie ahead. Key
