- Nijeer Parks couldn't have committed the crime. That didn't stop police from arresting him based off of a false facial recognition match. Here's why the technology can often misidentify Black people, with serious consequences.

Yet Tim Scott thinks there's no institutional racism in America
That is insane.

@@Angel-tw3ko This completely proves institutional racism, there must be a kkk guy programming the algorithm to that software to prosecute black people, or maybe cameras need lighting and black people don't reflect light very well,but thats not racist enough.... let's go back to blaming the camera for racism because that makes sense.... remember folks we must find racism in all things or it's not worth reporting.

What they didn't say is that if he couldn't afford to bail out of jail, he would have been sitting in jail for a year waiting for trial.
Oh yeah. Who can't afford to take a year away from their life while they defend themselves in court, to friend/family and their employer.
Possibly more! Kalief Browder spent almost 3 years in jail and 700 days in solitary confinement for an accusation of stealing a backpack, a misdemeanor, that he did not steal.
The judges should be held accountable for their lack of duty as well
Yeah but will he be held accountable NO!!
I agree with you. But the system is not about getting it right. It’s rigged against ppl of color.
Some judges are above any law!
Judges, prosecutors, all members of a gang.
No judges have very cushy permanent jobs and can't be sued.
Just being arrested can ruin a person's life, even when found completely innocent of the charges.
Especially if it’s something like rape and crimes dealing with children.
I have had to fill our forms that ask have you ever been arrested. Not felony, convicted just arrested.
He can write the prosecutor and request to have the record expunged. Not a big deal.
When you have a channel like this that will convict you before you even go through the process. Then there's people that people listen and believe anything they say even though the info is false.

He said I now know they have the ability to pick me up, put me in jail, and take my life away, even if I am innocent, the greatest fear ever.

@@tanyalove1661 It does to police
This type of horror is why advocates have been fighting to ban facial recognition for years.
Are you joking? Its not a perfect science by any means. People can change their face, features and more. Do you know how rare it is for this to happen? Do you know how many terrorists, criminals, killers and worse are found and tracked by this? One in a trillion being false flagged does not mean this science that does so much good should be banned by any means. Just because he got arrested does not mean he got charged nor even convicted. Being arrested is simply being taken in. Arrests are not on your record nor charges. A charge is the government formally accusing you of a crime but you are innocent until proven guilty. Once you are proven guilty or plead guilty, only then have you been convicted of a crime. Only then will it show on a record. This happens far more than you know and there's never any outrage. Why? People today play victim for everything. Let's call up all the past people false flagged by this imperfect but extremely useful and necessary science. Let's get them some outrage too. Nothing happened. They get a false flag, take the person in and quickly realize its not the person they are after. Simple as that. Theres no victim hood about it. Its an accident with no repercussions.
@@TheMilkMan8008 you’re extremely ignorant if you can watch this video and come to this conclusion. The software is biased because biased people designed it! Ask yourself who works in tech? Primarily white men. Which is why the accuracy rate for this tech for white men is near 100% and the accuracy rate for darker skinned men and women is under 50%. That’s the literal definition of racism. Please do some research. This is a real problem for everyone.
@@rationallyruby why does America have primarily whites working in ANY job? Because of its 73% white population. Its like saying "Africa is so bias in its work forces. Its almost all Africans and no white people" why? Cause Africans population is get this... majority Africans. Yes, different ethnic and racial groups have different features. Asians for example end up being super similar to computers. Africans less so bit still similar. Germanic whites similar to eachother but different to European Caucasian originally from Canada. It depends on your locality, history, and ancestry. But its not the 80s. Science has advanced and so has picture and facial match technology. They pick up better on nose shapes, jaw shapes, forehead and eye shapes. Far less false flags and even the few that happen here and there. Know what happens to them? Not a damn thing. Because its not who they are looking for.
@@rationallyruby

Guessing having an ignorant opinion gets responses.🌼
@@rationallyruby do tell me if you can identify every single difference between a group of 10 asians, a group of 10 Africans, and a group of 10 Caucasians from Poland and Russia. You can for some but some will be harder than others even for our human eyes. We don't live that culture. We don't easily know 1 from 2 like they would. Asians can tell asians apart better than whites. Whites can tell whites apart better than asians can. Africans can tell Africans apart better than asians. Are we all "racist" for not having the cultural ability to recognize different ethnic and racial features the way they can? We must be.

Cleaning white clothes is hard,you know how much these reds hate any stain on those white ropes and hoods,it will take them hours to get a stain off.
Even the naked eye can see those two men look nothing alike....🤔
yeah they do
But they never showed the actual picture in question. They blurred it out
they look similar, but at most they would be cousins.
To be fair, the vast majority of black Americans have ancestors in West Africa...and they are distinguishable from people living on other parts of that continent. Much like how Scandinavians are distinguishable from people from France.
Why don't you apply for a job there, if you can see better than a computer I'm sure you will be making millions of dollars
This system is sick, when they can get an id off the ground, and that override the video at a store, that is telling you it's all about putting black people in jail at all costs, and they wonder why, we don't trust anything coming from the system

Absolutely 💯 agree and anyone that says otherwise, well hopefully you get arrested facing years in prison for something you didn't do.
You see a lot of people commenting, oh oh that person's just looking for a payday. And in this case they should be! It's not just a simple case of unlawful arrest, 10 days in jail. Trust me and I think we all know it's true there are some jurisdictions, not all but some jurisdictions in America where 10 days in county lockup for a white man is just a bummer but for a black man it could be his life. This is enough anxiety to give anyone lifelong PTSD
@@Frenchblue8 I agree 100%
People don't understand that for 1 it will be on his record, charges dropped or not, its there. The humiliation, all of it plays a role and you probably will see people say it's not a big deal. But like I said in 1 comment, if you feel some type of way about it, then when it happens to yourself and facing that time, lmk how it works out.
He should be gifted enough money that that judge, those cops and the prosecutor never ever think of using facial recognition software ever again as evidence against anyone. Like perhaps around 100 million dollars, with additional 100 million dollars to groups trying to advocate against facial recognition software.
Hit em in tha pocket my guy
This technology of facial recognition is obviously very dangerous. Some people look almost identical to another person who they might not be related to at all. I walked into a Walmart and this man looked like a carbon copy of me. It made the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. It was a weird, chilling experience.
This same thing happened to a guy years ago he was 50 miles away from the crime...the justice system is a mess
"You've proven to me that you can lock me up for anything and there's nothing I can do about it"
Damn! That's deep, and so true being black.

they probably got facial recognition set on bias
@@richardraymond9108 Dave Chappell had a skit mentioning that. When the victim was describing the black perp to the cop drawing the sketch he replied let me grab my stencil.

This is unnecessary outrage just because of the times. There has never been any outrage by anyone in the past this has happened to because nothing came of it. Its an understandable mistake for an imperfect science.
@@TheMilkMan8008 the justice system that we have was originally designed to make sure even if the guilty get free no innocence should be sentenced that's why we have things called hung juries whereas if even one juror says no there is no conviction. Doesn't matter if you get it right nine times out of 10 even one innocence is wrong. Would you go to jail just so real guilty people go with you?
@@TheMilkMan8008 You don’t understand facial recognition software then or what stage it’s at. It has the highest rate of failure with dark skinned people. Has nothing to do with people changing their faces. It has to do with the technology simply not being able to distinguish black people that well due to its limitations. Yet they still rely solely on it as in this case.

In china they can tell if you are uyghur or even part uyghur based on facial recognition and they have expanded it to remember the way people move,walk sit, posture to identify people. China uses millions of cctv cameras that constantly watch their citizens and they are given a rating which if you did things that the governments considers good like buying groceries ,but if you bought alcohol your rating goes down. It's being used to control the population in abusive manner. When your rating goes low enough you lose freedoms like using public transportation and losing services that are available to regular scored citizens.

You are seen by multiple people during a trial and there's visits and retrials. Facial recognition in America has never been used for bad. Show me im wrong. Provide me proof. Because any time. False flag is brought in its pretty damn obvious to everyone its not their person. Places like China don't care about that. Dont compare the US to a place that is completely different. A place that human rights has been after for years. Compleatly non comparable. US has put terrorists away and China puts people away for looking at the wrong websites.

I worked in Woodbridge for 8 years and my dad once had a traffic ticket in the area. A majority of people from townsfolk to my bosses to the cops and to the judges are racist. I got called all sorts of names. Lots of Italians in Woodbridge who are nice but many imply you are beneath them
I already knew about this worrisome shit. Like damn this is concerning as hell
its not just that its mobile phone and actual cameras that were found to have that racist flaw built in. this is the reason why they prevent us , even with degrees from coding the tools that make a difference.
when i said this years ago i had to demonstrated that something as simple as HTML coding , use coding number to create hue and color values . when the color white is *FFFFF F nad black is *00000 we are actually designated with the value ZERO in the coding world . let that sink in for a minute. anything greyscale has black people with the digits zero
bcoz you are black man afraid to get arrested ?
@@gion1988 afraid of being misidentified and wrongly accused to be later wrongly convicted.
It's a rough Life when someone blames you for something that you didn't do when it when it comes down to your race and your skin color that's a whole different story🤔
It's awesome being a victim isn't it?
@@motherofthree8884 Is it? You tell us.
And your bank balance
@@niciolamyelwee6646 so true
Lol @ democrats low iq responses
I experienced something like this OVER A DECADE AGO, when I was homeless, in New York City. It's was regarding a traffic ticket, from a cop I never met, involving a vehicle I never had, and a non-existent baby car seat and said unidentified baby I never had, much less met or drove around. I didn't even have a place to live at the time.
But they did not even use facial recognition technology, just the word of this disgusting, female officer and her buddy, buddy judge and court clerk in a room, just the four of us. No due process! No lawyer! No trial! No witnesses! No evidence! I NEVER GOT JUSTICE!! BUT I'm still homeless!!
GOTTA LOVE THIS COUNTRY!! That's why I served it.
The goal for law enforcement is a conviction, they could care less if they convict the person who actually did it.
They can’t solve a single crime without a snitch.
It took me 2 seconds to realize the driver license pictures completely different than the other person
Me took
Facial recognition has been something that independent "techies" have been talking about for awhile. The feds should start to regulate this industry before it gets out of hand.
It's the feds that are abusing the technology aren't you paying attention
@@niceyh.2529 he's obviously stupid. The government is the ones who don't need this technology.
Good god, imagine the amount of people behind bars for something they haven't committed.
Omg 6 yrs for a crime he never committed !!! Our cops are disgusting!!!!
When I was in the army, my friends saw another soldier in the AFTRS television station that looked just like me and while on leave, I saw another soldier that looked just like me. This software wouldn’t have been able to tell us apart.
Jeezus. I could look at those two photos and see they're not the same person. That's scary.
I saw another case like this, thankfully the guy they tried to accuse was at work that day. Very scary...
I fit the description ever since I was about 17 years old and last I checked they still aint found this dude
We were warned about this but we never listen. I remembered a song by pearl jam called grievance it say for every tool they lend us a lost of independence and privacy
👏👏🏆👏👏
Yes sir.🌼
Bruh, they don’t even look alike
The law doesn't care who you are, if you are picked up by the law, you are guilty period. I've been fighting to get my innocent name off the sex offender registry. My problem is I've never been charged for said crime. So I can't even clear my name due to the law stating I have to have a case to get an expungement, five years ago I cleared my name with the courts but a District attorney change the ruling of the judge to keep my name on the registry and he had no right to do so. It's been 15 years of fighting and I have no more fight left. Every single lawyer in the state of Michigan has declined my need to clear my name. So how can I clear my name when the justice system keeps me on this list. Again no victim no charges just my name and that's it
Wow! This is scary to say the least!
EXACTLY! it makes you feel like the police can just roll up on you and do whatever they want and there is nothing you can do about it SO it makes you feel scared every time you see them!!! and that will stay with him the rest of his life!
AND THAT"S WRONG!
Wow 😳 why did they do that to him, it seemed so clear that he was innocent
What gets me is it was a fake id and they still were like "ThIs MuSt Be tHe GuY"
Really got to start wearing gps monitor all the time to prove you where not there at crime scene.
Any PERSON could see those are 2 different people.
Javi, its the fact that even with evidences and the guy's alibi Gringos did not care they just wanted to feed his body to El Diablo gringo.
I seriously doubt ANY person can tell the difference, you don't speak for anyone let alone all people. if a computer algorithm can't figure it out, maybe... just maybe they look alike and there's not some crazy racist facial recognition software on a mission to put black guys in jail.
@@blackprop9393 they do look alike.
This craziness will never stop!
I hope he wins a substantial lawsuit against those clowns. Equally, those three people involved in his false arrest should be terminated!
The fact that there are nearly 300 people who disliked this video tells us how sick some people are. Mental illness is REAL.
It prob had to to trial before they finally dropped the charges. Who's going to pay him back for the lawyer? Who's gonna pay him back for his time missed? This was covered on the daily show over a year ago. Js
Police should pay for all those sh** for wrongly doing him that
Facial recognition software was introduced in this side of the hemisphere for one set of people as seen in a documentary. Look it up sorry for this young man trials. Be safe and be bless
So is the WHOLE AMERICAN JUDICIAL SYSTEM made EXCLUSIVELY for AMERICAN BLACK CITIZENS
@@georgiasweetpotato7170 What do you mean? Your question does not have a focus. Exclusively normally means to benefit but I assume that you mean against.
That's messed up. The fact that he had ligitiment proof he was else where at the time of the crime.
The evil of the old is in a defined mode, there is nothing else.
I hope he is successful in his lawsuit and everyone involved is fired or at some point wrongly accused of crimes because of face recognition aka Miss Karma.
Sue the pants off for the highest amount awarded.... but that won't give you back your 10+ days and the trauma endured. Sounds like investigation 101. Somebody didn't pass the test or too lazy to investigate. I'm glad you are here and with us to speak about it. No telling what Great Lengths they would have gone through to cover this up
I did not even know that software was in effect. The pics did look similar, but other parts of this story are missing.
SMFH we just can’t get a break
Wow, he's lucky to be alive to tell the tale!
It's a tool which should never be used to send someone to jail.
A lot of cowards as Woodridge public employees.
Those two pictures didn't look anything alike, the only they had in common was they are both black. Wth
Charmaine its about the fact that the software only flags our distinctive symmetry but selects features for caucasians instead. i decided to come in coding world specifically because of this racial bias. but with proprietary devices and no commission to screen and vet the material ethiclaly. caucasians will fight tooth and nails to be scrutinized.
They must have programmed it to be racist.
It wasn’t even a facial match of someone from the scene. 😳 it was a match of a photo found at the scene that anyone could have left there. He could have left it there the day before. A veritable alibi, and this evidence? All involved should be sanctioned. 😞
Who could have left it there the day before ????? So he is going to intentionally incriminate himself????? A veritable alibi???
Is that what you would do????
@@clarkclarke I think you missed the point of my statement. The person who was a facial “match” wasn’t taken in a video or anything at the scene, it was a photo on a document left at the scene. My point was that that document could have been left there any time prior to the time of the crime by anyone at all and the person that left it there may not have had anything at all to do with what they were investigating. My point was that they took that item at the scene and presumed that it was left by the person committing the crime when there was no evidence of that in any case. And that that evidence that wasn’t really, they presented as more important than a verified alibi that he was 30 miles away at the time of the crime. That on its face is absurd.
"I shouldn't have to prove that I'm innocent, you should have to prove that I'm guilty"!
PREACH!!
Sue the hell out of those responsible for the wrongful arrest!!! Damn the apologies!!!😡
Happened to my white friend Walking on Air Force Base kept him in jail for 3 days then let him go
Wow...now computers think all African Americans look alike.😟
Omg computers are racist reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
They want to get you by any means necessary! 😒
