Episode Details

A Utah man was wrongly accused of felony vandalism after facial recognition software flagged him with a 94% match to a blurry Uber car image — leading to a court summons and months of legal stress. Despite no Uber history or alibi, his attorney exposed the real culprit with photos, forcing dismissal after five months. Though police still claim evidence doesn’t exonerate him, prosecutors now admit the tech was overrelied on and vow to use it only as a supplement — not the sole basis for charges.
