Researcher's Dashboard
Your private research dashboard — saved cases, notes, sources, and topics, stored only in this browser. Nothing here is sent anywhere or visible to anyone but you — not the site owner, not other visitors. Everything on this page will disappear if you clear your browser’s site data, and won’t show up if you open this site on a different device or browser.
Saved Cases
Request Public Records
Body camera footage never released, an internal review never made public, a grand jury summary that stayed sealed — most of that isn’t secret by law, it’s just never been formally requested. Generate a letter citing the correct state law for any case, addressed to the right kind of records custodian.
Your Notes
Every note you’ve written, across every case, in one place.
Saved Sources
Tap the ☆ next to any source on a case page to save it here for your own reference list.
Research Topics
A running list of leads, patterns, or angles you want to come back to — not tied to any one case.
Your Case Map
Draw your own connections between the cases you’ve saved — a shared detail, a pattern you noticed, a hunch worth tracking. These are your own private notes, not documented facts. They’re never shown to anyone else, never asserted as verified by this archive, and live only in this browser — completely separate from the site’s own documented Case Connections graph.
