Bloomington, Minnesota, just settled a lawsuit after Kylese Perryman was wrongfully arrested in 2021 thanks to faulty facial recognition tech—spending 52 days in custody before charges dropped. Surveillance footage proved he was at a party while the real suspects committed the crime, and Walmart cameras showed the thief had no tattoos—Perryman’s obvious giveaway. Experts say facial recognition should only generate leads, not convictions, and investigators failed basic police work like witness interviews or lineup procedures. Perryman filed suit to stop others from suffering his ordeal—and now Bloomington is making changes to prevent future tech-driven miscarriages of justice.
