# ACIN Media Package - Batch 1 Overview
The Office of the Prosecuting Attorney for the Sixth Judicial District delivered these seven PDFs on 2026-07-21 as the first rolling-production batch for Joshua's Arkansas Criminal Intelligence Network request. They are agency-produced public-facing fact sheets, FAQs, privacy materials, and a biography - strong evidence of how ACIN describes its own architecture and governance, but not substitutes for the requested contracts, participant agreements, board records, data schemas, policies, budgets, or audit exports.
## What's inside
- [[ACIN AI Fact Sheet]] - AI-supported pattern, relationship, and cross-jurisdiction analysis; human-review and audit claims; explicit mass-surveillance and dossier disclaimers.
- [[ACIN Executive Overview 2026-05-15]] - partnership, near-real-time RMS federation, AWS GovCloud, security controls, governance board, and analytical capabilities.
- [[ACIN FAQ 2026-05-15]] - concise answers on data, access, AI, governance, CJIS alignment, and ACIN's non-surveillance self-classification.
- [[ACIN One-Page Fact Sheet]] - states that ACIN was founded in 2024, is headquartered in Little Rock, and is governed by a multi-agency board.
- [[ACIN Privacy and Security Overview 2026-05-15]] - originating-agency ownership, Third Agency Rule, auditability, privacy, and annual-review claims.
- [[ACIN Privacy and Security Overview 2026-05-11 Variant]] - near-duplicate earlier layout with a different Casey Clark title line.
- [[Casey P. Clark Executive Biography]] - ACIN's self-authored account of Clark's LRPD career, founder role, and platform-development work.
## Key takeaways
- **Statewide incident-data federation.** ACIN says it connects participating agencies' records-management systems in a CJIS-aligned cloud environment and lets them share and analyze incident-report information "in near real time" ([[ACIN Executive Overview 2026-05-15]], pp. 1-2, "Connects participating Records Management Systems (RMS)"; "share and analyze incident-report information in near real time").
- **Analytical and alerting layer.** The materials identify cross-jurisdiction case linking, relationship analysis, dashboards, pattern identification, real-time alerts, and AI-assisted links among "people, vehicles, locations, and events" ([[ACIN Executive Overview 2026-05-15]], p. 3, "relationship analysis, investigative dashboards, pattern identification, and real-time investigative alerts"; [[ACIN AI Fact Sheet]], p. 1, "possible connections between people, vehicles, locations, and events").
- **Institutional origin.** ACIN says it was developed through a partnership between the [[Sixth Judicial District Prosecuting Attorney's Office]] and the [[Little Rock Police Department]], and the one-page sheet identifies a 2024 founding date ([[ACIN Executive Overview 2026-05-15]], p. 1, "Developed through a partnership between the 6th Judicial District Prosecuting Attorney's Office and the Little Rock Police Department"; [[ACIN One-Page Fact Sheet]], p. 1, "Founded 2024").
- **Federated-control claim.** Participating agencies are said to retain ownership and control, with the "Third Agency Rule" preventing one participant from releasing another's information without originating-agency authorization ([[ACIN Privacy and Security Overview 2026-05-15]], p. 2, "Participating agencies retain ownership and control"; "cannot release another agency's information without authorization from the originating agency").
- **Security and audit claims.** ACIN identifies AWS GovCloud hosting, multi-factor authentication, role-based access, encryption, continuous monitoring, and full activity logging ([[ACIN Executive Overview 2026-05-15]], p. 2, "Hosting within AWS GovCloud (US)"; "Full audit logging and monitoring"). The batch supplies no configuration export, audit report, policy, or independent certification that tests those claims.
- **Framing tension.** The same package describes a statewide, near-real-time analytical network while repeatedly stating that ACIN is not a criminal-intelligence database, surveillance system, mass-surveillance platform, or dossier system. That is tracked as [[T014 - ACIN Analytical Reach vs Non-Surveillance Classification]].
- **First-batch boundary.** No participating-agency roster, vendor contract, federal award, approved budget, board membership record, MOU, data-governance policy, retention schedule, AI model/vendor specification, or audit export appears in this media package. Those requested categories remain open in the rolling production.
