Representatives with the Chatham County District Attorney's Office (CCDAO) said they are partnering with the Justice Innovation Lab (JIL) to review and improve the office's criminal justice enforcement.

“We’re maximizing our resources so that the cases that have the greatest level of public safety impact are getting the greatest level of attention," Michael Edwards, first assistant district attorney, said.
