@MarioNawBUSTED BY AI: CHILD ABUSER FOUND IN SECONDS AFTER 27 YEARS ON THE RUN Richard Burrows vanished in 1997 before trial for abusing kids. For 27 years, cops searched. Nothing. Then in 2024, a detective used PimEyes, an AI face search site, and found him in seconds — in Thailand, living as Peter Smith, neck pimple and all. He faked a passport using his face and a dying man’s name, lived the quiet expat life, then flew back to the UK broke. Cops nabbed him at the airport. Now? 46 years in prison for 97 child sex crimes. The internet never forgets. AI really, really doesn’t. Source: BBC
