Woman wrongfully imprisoned for 6 months due to faulty facial recognition.

Wait 5 sec.

This case is disgusting just on the violations of due process afforded to every American. This woman had never been to the backward state of North Dakota, but hick law enforcement detectives there decided she was a bank fraud suspect because AI facial recognition software from a private for profit company said her driver's license photo matched the grainy video from ATM/Bank CCTV. They used AI facial recognition software as the key evidence to get an arrest warrant. No witnesses, fingerprints, DNA, or real evidence. What's worse is this poor woman in Tennessee had no money for a lawyer to fight extradition to North Dakota and demand what's called an identification hearing. After 4 months in a Tennessee jail she was transported to North Dakota where a court appointed lawyer got the case dismissed due to lack of evidence. When the woman was released from a North Dakota jail, authorities didn't pay for her transportation back to Tennessee, but instead dumped her outside into the streets of Fargo, ND to fend for herself. Who is the POS facial recognition company that North Dakota law enforcement used to destroy this woman's life?   submitted by   /u/windowbox9152 [link]   [comments]
