Some thoughts about police reports
C4RJ treats these as confidential documents. If the department has not already done so, our office redacts any social security numbers and any witnesses or names of people who might have been interviewed during the course of investigation but who won’t be relevant to our process. Our staff summarize the incident reports, including only information relevant to our process, and share only these summaries with the volunteers who will be involved in the case. If offenders or victims request copies of reports, we refer them to your department.
If you think you have an appropriate case, please email (referral@c4rj.org) the incident report and let us know whether there is any other information you think we should have about the parties involved.
