Officers Dissent and Harsher Enforcement Under Obama
摘要
This chapter examines changes in the punitive bias of ICE officers from 2012 through 2016. We define punitive bias as the officers’ higher likelihood of expressing a written dissent with Low-Risk Classification cases compared to high-risk classification ones, as we discussed in Chap. 3 . We then show how these biases inform changes to the RCA algorithm, reflecting changes in enforcement priorities, as discussed in Chap. 4 .
