Wednesday, January 25, 2017 — Dr. Brad Myrstol, a faculty member of the UAA
Justice Center and the Director of the Alaska Justice Information Center and
the Alaska Justice Statistical Analysis Center, was interviewed by Alaska
Dispatch News regarding the impact of Alaska’s criminal justice reforms that
were included in SB91. The Alaska
Justice Information Center is collaborating with the Alaska Judicial Council to
assess the impact of these reforms. As Dr.
Myrstol explained, it is too early to measure impacts. Dr. Myrstol further explained that it would
be better to fully understand the impact of these reform efforts before making
additional changes to these efforts.
