This is the story of Randal Reid.
— Ryan Mac 🙃 (@RMac18) March 31, 2023
In a warrant for his arrest, a police officer in Jefferson Parish, LA said he used a "credible source" to identify Reid. That source was facial recognition. The dept had one facial recognition vendor: Clearview AI.https://t.co/HnL0POZGNq
A judge signed off on the arresting doc using an electronic warrant system. Legal experts say e-warrants could lead to "rubber-stamping" and less scrutiny of warrant requests.

A second LA police department also got a warrant based on the first PD's work.https://t.co/HnL0POZGNq
Reid spent 6 days in GA jail awaiting extradition to LA. He missed work. He incurred impounding costs for his car.

He was eventually released, but with little details. In tracking his story, @kashhill and I found how policing tech can go very, very wrong: https://t.co/HnL0POZGNq
