# Cold Cases filtered for California mentions

This dataset is produced by launching one Hugging Face Job per source parquet
shard from `harvard-lil/cold-cases`.

Each job filters its assigned shard for rows whose main content mentions
`California` case-insensitively, then uploads results into its own directory:

- `shards/<source-shard-stem>/data/*.parquet`
- `shards/<source-shard-stem>/README.md`
- `shards/<source-shard-stem>/filter_stats.json`

Notes:

- Jobs are intentionally independent to allow full parallel execution.
- The output repo is an intermediate filtered subset, not a final retrieval-ready corpus.
- Source shard count at launch time: `32`
