Despite accuracy issues leading to wrongful arrests, many PD already use.

That's OK. The American people want to be spied on and arrested. I can tell, because if the people didn't want this, they would be protesting about it, and calling for legislation to control and limit how this sort of AI can be used.

Sheep to the slaughter… never changes!

Ukrainian ex-football player Vasilenko arrested in Moscow on espionage charges

Between 1992 and 2001, Vasily Vasilenko played in several Ukrainian football teams

Authorities from Russia’s Federal Security Service (FSB) have determined that former Ukrainian football player Vasily Vasilenko was spying for Ukraine, consequently the ex-footballer was arrested in Moscow, a law enforcement source told TASS.

"FSB officers, in cooperation with the Russian law enforcement officers, determined that Ukrainian national Vasilenko Vasily Ivanovich, was involved in [espionage]. He was indicted and is now in custody in one of the Moscow’s detention facilities," the source said.

Between 1992 and 2001, Vasilenko played in several Ukrainian football teams. He was born in 1967 and is a Ukrainian national.

In October 2019, Vasilenko was arrested over charges of smuggling of forbidden substances. This spring, the case was re-qualified as espionage. The arrest of the Ukrainian national has become known only now, because he appealed neither his arrest nor any of rulings on arrest extension. The investigation is being conducted by the Moscow FSB Directorate.

Moscow’s Meschansky Court disclosed that, on June 19, Vasilenko’s arrest was extended until September 24. Charges of espionage carry a punishment of up to 20 years in prison.

That van says it is the FBI equivalent of Russia that is involved

translated excerpt that explains what is really going on

the Ukrainian was charged with the crime provided for in paragraph 1 of Article 226.1 of the Criminal Code - “Illegal movement across the border of potent, toxic, poisonous, explosive, radioactive substances or ammunition”.

Whatever the stuff was that Vasilenko imported into Russia, they have been keeping it secret since his arrest in January 2019. Today they just upgraded the charge to espionage.

Here's my theory for which I have NO EVIDENCE.

He was indeed a spy, who intended to interrogate somebody using scopolamine. Finally he let slip enough info to confirm that he was not just a businessman looking out for his own interests, but was acting on behalf of another government intelligence agency or a terrorist group.

Could be working for rogue CIA. Could be for Ukrainian criminals who want to destabilize Russia (i.e. terrorists) so they can improve their business prospects there. Both the rogue CIA groups, and organized crime, have recruited a lot of Ukrainians over the past decade or so, and many of them work outside of Ukraine, i.e. in Russia or in the USA.
