System and method for eliminating bias in selectively edited video

A system comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• a memory coupled to the processor, the memory containing thereon a set of instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to:
• receive a request to release a video capturing a public safety incident;
• edit the video to create an edited video;
• for at least one civilian captured in the video capturing a public safety incident, compute a civilian score, the civilian score based on a sentiment of the video capturing the public safety incident;
• for at least one public safety official captured in the video capturing a public safety incident, compute a public safety official score, the public safety official score based on a sentiment of the video capturing the public safety incident;
• for at least one civilian captured in the edited video, compute an edited civilian score, the edited civilian score based on a sentiment of the edited video;
• for at least one public safety official captured in the edited video, compute an edited public safety official score, the edited public safety official score based on a sentiment of the edited video;
• compute a first score, the first score based on a combination of the civilian score and the public safety official score;
• compute a second score, the second score based on a combination of the edited civilian score and the edited public safety official score;
• compare the first and second score to determine if a difference between the scores exceed a threshold;
• and
• release the edited video capturing the public safety incident when the scores do not exceed the threshold.

A non-transitory processor readable medium containing a set of instructions thereon that when executed by a processor cause the processor to:

• receive a request to release a video capturing a public safety incident;
• edit the video to create an edited video;
• for at least one civilian captured in the video capturing a public safety incident, compute a civilian score, the civilian score based on a sentiment of the video capturing the public safety incident;
• for at least one public safety official captured in the video capturing a public safety incident, compute a public safety official score, the public safety official score based on a sentiment of the video capturing the public safety incident;
• for at least one civilian captured in the edited video, compute an edited civilian score, the edited civilian score based on a sentiment of the edited video;
• for at least one public safety official captured in the edited video, compute an edited public safety official score, the edited public safety official score based on a sentiment of the edited video;
• compute a first score, the first score based on a combination of the civilian score and the public safety official score;
• compute a second score, the second score based on a combination of the edited civilian score and the edited public safety official score;
• compare the first and second score to determine if a difference between the scores exceed a threshold;
• and
• release the edited video capturing the public safety incident when the scores do not exceed the threshold.
