Text 1. Oakland Puts Crime Statistics Maps On the Internet

From a news story by

CNN San Francisco Reporter Don Knapp

Police officers respond to a shooting near a liquor store in a tough west Oakland neighborhood. The kind of crime rarely reported by newspapers, or TV. But in a few days, neighbors can read all about it on the Internet.

Jerry Brown, the mayor of Oakland, looks at the computer screen showing the Oakland crime statistics; "There's a lot of crime in that area, isn't it."

Jerry Brown, Oakland's mayor and California's former governor, promotes the quarter million dollar project that makes Oakland the first city in the country to put its crime statistics on the web.

Mayor Jerry Brown says, "Every neighborhood, precinct can be called up, and therefore the citizen knows what's happening, as well as the police can identify a pattern of criminality on a daily basis, and then do something about it, interrupt it, change it, stop it."

On the map a red star marks a homicide; a green star assault; the red circles armed robbery. A light green star is a forcible rape; an orange circle child abuse. The purple triangles are car thefts.

Deborah Acosta is a neighborhood activist who lives in Oakland, "If you highlight those incidents, right here, it will give you a case number. So this case happened in '99, and there's a case number 115843."

Another click provides the police report. Neighborhood activist Deborah Acosta says its powerful information to battle crime. "They realize, aha, this impacts me now, it impacts the value of my home, it impacts the willingness of people to move into my neighborhood, and go to my local school. I guess I'd better do something."

That says, police Chief Richard Word, is what police want, "The information we now have is made available to them, so they essentially will be come equal partners, and we can work with them. And then begin this process of problem solving, working closely together to solve some of the persistent neighborhood problems that we are seeing. "

Mayor Brown says putting neighborhood crime information on the web its all about creating political pressure, and the neighborhoods that learn how to use that pressure are likely to get results.
