    How would mandatory reporting of prosecution data help identify which jurisdictions need resources versus which ones face different challenges in handling serious crimes?

  2. 02

    What concerns might arise from requiring prosecutors to publicly report declined cases, and how could that affect their prosecutorial discretion?

  3. 03

    Which federal grants would trigger these reporting requirements, and could smaller jurisdictions without federal funding face unequal scrutiny?
