CSG researchers on increasing race data availability in Montana’s criminal legal system (Part 2)

Last July, the Council of State Governments Justice Center released a report titled Racial Equity in Montana’s Criminal Justice System: An Analysis of Court, Corrections, and Community Supervision Systems detailing disparities experienced by Indigenous peoples in Montana’s criminal legal system. Researchers Alison Martin and Matt Herman sat down with us to discuss how the study was conducted, the key findings, what it means for other racial and ethnic minorities in Montana whose criminal justice experiences were not examined due to lack of data, and current efforts to increase race data availability in Montana’s criminal legal system.

Surviving The System The Fringe FM Surviving The System is a podcast created to shed light on the hypocrisy and injustice of “the system” in our nation today. I founded this podcast after first hand experience of how the system works - the shady tactics by law enforcement, the blatant disregard for the law by the legal system, the ever increasing attempts to crush the human spirit by the prison industrial complex and so called “re-entry” efforts. All of it appearing to be designed to keep people beat down, with no opportunity to learn and grow from their past mistakes. Since my experience with the system, I’ve learned that things are almost never cut and dry, right or wrong. So called “criminals” are some of the most compassionate, talented and intelligent individuals this world has to offer. On the flip side, there are some people who appear to lead the perfect life are all too often miserable human beings who are simply better at hiding their crimes from the rest of the world.
