🚨 AI said he was an "85% match." Police never checked his alibi. A father lost nearly three months of his life — his job, his home, and custody of two of his children — for a crime he didn't commit.

"I'm not sure how I'm going to bounce back from this one," Richardson said. 🔗 Full story at blavity.com #Blavity #JalilRichardson #FacialRecognition #AI #RacialProfili...
