This response to Sir Brian Leveson’s Independent Review of the Criminal Courts is submitted by a team
of academic researchers with extensive expertise in the ethical, legal, safeguarding, and operational
applications of data analytics and AI within the criminal justice system. Our work is anchored in the
RAI Keystone Project, “PROBabLE Futures”, a four-year research initiative focused on evaluating
probabilistic AI systems across the criminal justice sector. The project aims to develop a responsible,
practical, and ‘operational-ready’ framework in collaboration with multiple criminal justice partners.
