A tale of two clients: criminal justice system failings in addressing the needs of South Asian communities of Surrey, British Columbia, Canada
Bibliographic record
Abstract
South Asians are the largest immigrant group in Canada, yet criminal justice system interventions have failed to adequately address the needs of this population. The experiences of South Asian families in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, who become involved with the criminal justice system as a result of an incident of intimate partner violence, are described by front-line practitioners who deal with them in the days, weeks and months following the incident. These front-line workers argued that long court waits and long waits for counselling, coupled with South Asian cultural values around marriage and the tendency to reconcile after criminal justice system involvement, are creating additional stressors upon the victim. They envision changes that would make criminal justice system interventions more responsive to the needs of South Asian families.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
