Join Baltimore Legal Hackers for a Zoom event at 6:00 p.m. on February 16 to participate in a discussion about “Chasing Justice,” a recent report from ACLU of Maryland, which demonstrates how publicly available data can be used to deanonymize police officers whose misconduct allegations are shrouded in secrecy.

Guests include:

  • Joe Spielberger, Public Policy Counsel for ACLU of Maryland and author of “Chasing Justice"
  • Brandon Soderberg, reporter and coauthor of “I Got A Monster,” who wrote about “Chasing Justice” for The Appeal; and
  • Amelia McDonnell-Parry, a former journalist and podcaster for Undisclosed who now works for the Maryland Office of the Public Defender.

This meet-up is for the general public. We encourage a robust and civil conversation and will be monitoring the event and reserve the right to remove anyone from the Zoom event who is being disruptive or unkind.
