Two very disparate takes on Cuyahoga County's justice system were on display this week at virtual forum between county prosecutor candidates Matthew Ahn and Michael O'Malley.
To put it relatively brief: 32-year-old Ahn further solidified himself as the candidate of progressive ideas; 59-year-old O'Malley as the weathered prosecutor resting on the badge of experience. O'Malley retaliated with his own data: 80% of last year's teenage suspects were tried as adults; though only nine total bindovers were discretionary. He added that, as per policy, those optional bindovers—ordered by the court or by O'Malley's office—require mental health reports, dives into prior crime, into a kid's"response to previous treatment."
But what data is, and how it's handled, was probably the most illuminating divider between the two. Whenever Ahn was knee-deep in the tenets of his"fairer, data-driven, more evidence-based" take on the prosecutor's seat, O'Malley seemed to raise his brows, or allow a kind of dubious smirk. And for every career point O'Malley was proud to rattle off, Ahn seemed to have the policy tweak in mind ready to go.
"That is better accountability, it is better for victims, and it is better on a policy level," Ahn said.All
