Police report analysis: find what doesn't match
The police report is the prosecution's first draft of the story. Reading it carefully is table stakes; comparing it against the bodycam, the 911 call, and the witness statements is where the defense case lives. Evidence Copilot makes every page of the report searchable and automatically flags candidate inconsistencies across your evidence.

Reports are written to hold up. Your job is to check.
Scanned reports arrive as flat PDFs — no text layer, so nothing is searchable and everything must be read page by page.
The real work is cross-document: does the report's timeline match the bodycam clock? Does the alleged statement appear in the call audio? Doing that by hand across dozens of files is where inconsistencies slip through.
How it works
- 1
Upload the report and everything else
Scanned PDFs, photos of documents, bodycam, calls — all into one case workspace.
- 2
OCR makes pages searchable
Scanned PDFs with no text layer are rasterized and OCR'd; photo evidence gets the same treatment. Bounding boxes are kept so text is redactable later.
- 3
Auto-compare on ingest
Each new file is compared against earlier evidence in the case. Candidate inconsistencies — report vs bodycam, statement vs call — land as review signals with both quotes side by side.
- 4
Verify and build
Confirm or dismiss each signal, draft cross-exam questions from the mismatches, and pull cited excerpts into your brief or exhibit pack.
What you get
Every page searchable
OCR text joins the same searchable corpus as transcripts — one search across the whole case.
Inconsistency signals
Auto-generated review signals quote both sources side by side, marked unreviewed until a human verifies them.
Cross-exam drafts
From a verified mismatch, draft suggested questions — every question tied to a quoted source, no credibility conclusions.
Timeline extraction
Dates stated in documents can be proposed as draft timeline events for your chronology.
Cited everywhere
Copy an excerpt and the citation — page, file, moment — travels with it into briefs and exhibit packs.
Built for
- Defense attorneys preparing motions and cross-exams
- Law clerks building chronologies
- Investigators checking report claims against media
Frequently asked questions
How do I find inconsistencies in a police report?
The systematic approach is to compare each factual claim in the report against independent recordings: bodycam, dashcam, 911 and jail calls, and witness statements. Evidence Copilot automates the first pass — every new file is compared against what's already in the case, and candidate mismatches surface as review signals with both quotes attached for you to verify.
Can it read scanned or handwritten reports?
Scanned PDFs with no text layer are OCR'd automatically. Clean typed scans read very well; degraded copies and handwriting vary — the OCR text is always editable and every claim stays tied to the original page image so you can check it.
Does the tool decide what's a contradiction?
No. It surfaces candidate inconsistencies as signals for a human to verify. Every AI output is marked for review, and nothing is ever auto-applied to your case record without you.
Is my case file confidential?
Your workspace is org-scoped with case-level access control, every action is audit-logged, and media is served through signed expiring links. We never train models on your evidence.
