Brendan O'Flaherty (Columbia University, Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, Department of Economics), Rajiv Sethi (Barnard College, Columbia University; Santa Fe Institute) & Morgan Williams Jr (Barnard College, Columbia University, Department of Economics)have posted Profiling in Criminal Justice on SSRN. Here is the abstract:

We argue for a taxonomy of harms that differs somewhat from the conventional approach taken by economists.
