Edmonton Police Use DNA Phenotyping to Generate Suspect Image, Sparking Racial Profiling Concerns
The Edmonton Police Service used Parabon NanoLabs' Snapshot DNA phenotyping tool to generate a facial composite of a suspect from DNA evidence. The generated image depicted a Black individual, despite the technology's inability to accurately predict age, weight, or skin colour. After releasing the image publicly, the police faced widespread criticism from geneticists and the public, who warned it could lead to racial profiling of the Black community. The police subsequently removed the image and acknowledged they had not adequately considered the risks to marginalized communities.

Durham Police uses Experian Mosaic data in HART AI risk tool
Durham Constabulary developed the Harm Assessment Risk Tool (HART), a machine learning algorithm that assesses the recidivism risk of offenders. The tool uses 34 data categories including criminal history, age, gender and two types of postcode, one sourced from Experian's Mosaic marketing segmentation system. Big Brother Watch alleges that using such commercial consumer behaviour data to inform custody decisions risks prejudice and disproportionate targeting of deprived neighbourhoods. The force has stated it is refreshing the model with an aim to remove one of the postcode predictors.
