NYPD, judge, and public defenders clash over evidence-sharing systems and discovery compliance at oversight hearing

Summary

At an oversight hearing on court operations, NYPD described automated evidence-sharing systems (DA portal, ECMS, evidence.com) and a discovery liaison unit but acknowledged accessibility limits. A judge noted a vendor failed to scale and borough offices built workarounds. Public defenders urged granting DA access to NYPD systems and faster evidence uploads to meet statutory discovery windows.
