NICE (Nasdaq: NICE) today announced that the District Attorney’s Office for the Augusta (Georgia) Judicial Circuit will be deploying NICE Justice digital evidence management, one of the AI-powered solutions in NICE’s Evidencentral platform, to deliver timelier justice for victims of crime. Through its deployment of NICE Justice, the DA’s Office aims to reduce delays associated with evidence intake and handling, and move cases through the criminal justice system faster. The Augusta DA’s Office is the fifth prosecutor’s office in the state of Georgia to deploy the NICE Justice digital transformation platform.

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.

District Attorney Jared Williams said, “Slow justice is no justice. Our mission is to deliver true, fair and efficient justice for victims of crime. Our investment in NICE Justice will automate processes around intaking and managing digital evidence, so our office can focus on prosecuting serious felonies and protecting victims.”

Chris Wooten, Executive Vice President, NICE, said, “Digital evidence is growing at an exponential rate and managing that evidence is key to prosecuting crimes effectively. With NICE Justice, prosecutors and office staff can offer the highest level of support to victims in the community by allocating their time and talents to building, preparing and prosecuting cases, instead of performing the rote work involved in managing digital evidence.”

The District Attorney’s Office for the Augusta Judicial Circuit represents the people of the State of Georgia in all felony matters occurring in Burke and Richmond Counties. Sixty staffers handle about 5,000 cases at any given time, including 2,500 felony cases annually. Leveraging NICE Justice, the DA’s Office expects to shave a projected nine to twelve months from the average case’s lifespan.

The Augusta DA’s Office will streamline the evidence intake process by providing a portal (through NICE Justice) where all law enforcement agencies can upload their digital evidence. This will eliminate the resource and time-intensive tasks of tracking down evidence, and manually downloading, copying and uploading it from and onto CDs and disks. The Office receives digital evidence from the Richmond County Sheriff's Office, the Burke County Sheriff's Office and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation, along with eight other law enforcement agencies in its jurisdiction. With NICE Justice, uploaded evidence will be automatically matched to the correct digital case folders and attorneys will be notified when new evidence is received.

NICE Justice also features other built-in capabilities to further reduce delays and improve prosecutor productivity. These include the ability to automatically transcode and redact video, sequence evidence on timelines, transcribe audio and video, and share evidence with defense attorneys through a fully digital process.
