If someone does do this, I'd be very interested in reading the outcome. Sounds like a fantastic idea. There's a few people who I've seen post on HN before that are familiar with filing FOIA requests. If the dataset can be acquired and released, I'm pretty sure there's enough people on HN who might be willing to work together in the open to write the analysis.
- tankenmate 10y agoCount me in; if I can help I will. I live outside the US but I suspect this problem probably exists in countries all around the world.
- vijayr 10y agoIs there a ranking of countries by fairness of their justice system, done by a neutral party? Would be interesting to know where countries stand.
- adanto6840 10y agoAdmittedly, I didn't read the article. That said, I'm very familiar w/ the FOIA process and have a legal team setup to send them out; if the volume isn't huge then the cost isn't tremendous. If you could provide more specific information to me on what would be beneficial/useful to FOIA, I'd be more than happy to take a look, and likely send them -- and put them up on a public Github repo with a license that makes the data useful. Email me -- arthur [at] dantonio [dot] co [no M].
- drizzzler 10y agoI would be willing to donate (a small amount) for these expenses. If it comes together, please put me in any mailing lists or message me directly.
- lostlogin 10y agoDitto.

- onetwotree 10y agoCount me in as well. I'm freshly unemployed and looking for fun projects, preferably with a side of fighting for great good! jonathan [dot] j [dot] mason [at] gmail
