Louisiana Department of Public Safety and Corrections May, 2016 Darryl Campbell

 Challenged to “Do more with less” in early 2009, the LA DPS&C began looking at various aspects of our daily operations  Transportation costs caught the attention of the Department’s Leadership team  Video Court Project – July 2009  Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola  Orleans Criminal District Court

 The LA DPS&C evaluated court activity between all 64 parishes which led to an experiment to provide offenders for various court appearances via video rather than having to physically transport  Orleans Criminal Court judges agreed to be our partner and test the technology  Appearances, Arraignments, Hearing involving interpreters where we would have to transport offender to the interpreter; Minimize costs

ReliabilityAvailability Cost effectivenessEase of use Judicial Liaison

 Judicial Liaison  Point of Contact for project facilitation  Thinking outside of the norm  Accommodating to courts  Attorney / Client Access  Document Sharing

 Benefits  Reduces possible risk to the public, offender and staff  Reduces courtroom congestion  Reduces staff overtime  Keeps more officers at the facility
