Eric Granof joined AIA in 2009 and is Vice President of Corporate Communications. 

In this podcast A-1 Nick of the A-1 Podcast poses several questions to Mr. Granof, like:

What is a risk assessment tool and how is it used to predict a releasee's return to court?

Have algorithms improved the court's ability to release defendants that do return to court? - No

Are risk assessment tools biased, racist, and/or deeply flawed? - Yes

They also discuss the mass incarceration myth that money keeps poor people in jail, the disasters of the New York Bail Reforms which have lead to increases in crime, and California's recent crime wave after the covid-19 emergency releases.
