How this officer decides — from their own reports

Not filled in yet — this needs at least 20 of Matt Walker's own officer reports parsed, and their reports haven't reached that threshold in the parsing run. It fills automatically as parsing progresses; nothing is estimated in its place.

Policy playbook — what this officer cites[3]

The policies this officer cites most across their decisions — how often each appears, and whether refusals citing it survive appeal.

In development — policy citations are coded from officer reports, and that parsing hasn't run for Brent yet. Nothing is shown until it is real.
