The Herald Journal analysis of 15 000 arrests from 1981 to 1983 shows blacks faced higher jail rates and longer delays than whites, with Hispanics counted as whites in state data. Police, prosecutors, and judges acknowledge race and money influence outcomes, while some areas show near colorblind results.
