White by Default?

The viral posts were right.

We scraped 5.5 million criminal records and 1.5 million mugshots from 39 states.

29% of Hispanics are being misclassified as White in official Department of Corrections databases.

Even when Hispanic is explicitly classified 🧵 Image
Everyone's seen these collages claiming non-whites get classified as White in criminal databases.

The problem? Anecdotal. Cherry-picked. No way to verify.

We had 1.5 million mugshots, names, and official racial classifications.

Time to test it systematically: Image
We trained a multinomial logistic regression on 18 features:
• DeepFace racial probabilities from mugshots
• Census name demographics
• First and last name racial statistics

92.76% accuracy distinguishing Black, White and Hispanic. Image
