- catalog abstract "The Operation Hardcore [Crime] Evaluation was a special prosecutorial program which was developed and implemented by the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office to examine the effectiveness of specialized prosecutorial activities in dealing with the local problem of rising gang violence. One part of the evaluation was a system performance analysis, a quantitative assessment of how criminal justice agencies handled criminal incidents involving gang violence. This included the analysis of data describing actions taken by several criminal justice agencies in the complete process of handling of criminals and criminal incidents. The purposes of this system performance analysis were to describe the problems of gang violence in Los Angeles and the ways that incidents of gang violence have been handled by the Los Angeles criminal justice system, to document the activities of the special gang prosecution unit, Operation Hardcore, and the criminal justice handling of the cases prosecuted by that unit, and to evaluate the extent to which Operation Hardcore has affected criminal justice handling of gang violence. The Los Angeles District Attorney's Office systematically screens all referrals from local police agencies and keeps computer-generated listings of all individuals referred for prosecution. These listings, one for acceptances and one for rejections, are kept for each year. These listings were used to identify those individuals identified by the police who were subsequently prosecuted by the District Attorney. Finally, the District Attorney maintains working files on all cases prosecuted by deputies in his office. These case files include copies of police, court, and criminal history records, as well as information on case prosecution and were used as the primary source of data describing criminal justice handling. Several supplementary sources were used including the automated Prosecutors Management Information System (PROMIS) maintained by the District Attorney's Office, and court records in the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles County, the local felony court.".
