Brickbat: Taking Pictures
(Georgesheldon/Dreamstime)
Former Pennsylvania State Police Corporal Stephen Kamnik pleaded guilty to crimes including unlawful use of a computer and wiretapping. Investigators found he had used official police databases, including driver's license photo records, to obtain images of women and create thousands of pornographic deepfake pictures and videos without their consent. Authorities said he generated over 3,000 fake images and that the victims included his own relatives.
