In 2023, DPD officers wrongfully arrested plaintiff Porcha Woodruff on the basis of a faulty facial recognition match and subsequent witness identification made from a photo lineup array.

In the amicus brief filed by the 老澳门开奖结果 and the 老澳门开奖结果 of Michigan before the District Court, we argue that neither an FRT result, nor an eyewitness identification from a photo array based on an FRT result, can supply probable cause for an arrest. FRT results are fundamentally unreliable and display higher rates of false matches for people of color, women, and young adults. Moreover, because FRT systems are designed to find similar-looking faces, even when the technology gets it wrong, the result is likely to look similar to the suspect. A photo lineup array containing an innocent false-match 鈥渄枚ppelganger鈥� generated by FRT surrounded by filler photos that necessarily look less like the suspect is impermissibly suggestive and can lead the witness to wrongly select the innocent person chosen by FRT. That is what happened in Ms. Woodruff鈥檚 case.

The amicus brief urges the court to provide clarity to the public and the police about how FRT taints investigations and why witness identification procedures based only on FRT results are fundamentally unreliable.
