Greg DeAngelo

As noted by Greg DeAngelo, “There is a difference between the way laws are written and how they are applied.” This is precisely why researchers must use an abundance of care when analyzing criminal justice issues. Gregory DeAngelo is the director of the Computational Justice Lab and an associate professor in the Department of Economic Sciences. He aims to use data science tools to help local prosecutors and law enforcement agencies improve outcomes and create a positive impact in the community.
