UK Ministry of Justice has developed a computer programme to predict who might commit murder

An algorithm has been developed by the UK’s Ministry of Justice to predict which criminals might later commit murder.   The tool, originally named the “Homicide Prediction Project,” is called the “Sharing Data to Improve Risk Assessment.”

Led by the Ministry of Justice, Greater Manchester Police, Home Office and Metropolitan Police, the project started in January 2023 and, according to a timeline obtained by Statewatch via the Freedom of Information Act, was completed in December 2024 but is yet to be deployed.

It raises concerns about bias and the ethical implications of using such predictive models on vast datasets, including those already facing structural discrimination in the UK such as those within the white British ethnic group, particularly white men.

Related: The Sentencing Council has suspended its “two-tier” sentencing guidelines but anti-white, anti-male bias remains in UK’s judiciary and Lawfare, traditionally employed by the left, was used by the right to defeat two-tier sentencing guidelines

The return result will always be “whitey.” Pre-crime is a totalitarian dream.

It is supposed to be very accurate, they say that the person arrested was the ex-wife of the guy who developed the software.

Philip Dick, the science fiction author, who wrote the book Minority Report in the 1950s was a little off, though. AI will be used to determine who is guilty of pre-crimes, instead of the precogs.

And the 'migrant' rape and grooming gangs. Even after extensive arrests and reports of rapes they are still not considered persons of interest when the next rapes are reported. I can't imagine if those gang members were deported - the shock they'd feel being sent somewhere they couldn't prey on young girls whenever they felt like it.
