S37 E6: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly | The Expert Witness

S37 E6: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly | The Expert Witness

Cybercheck has spread across the U.S. through aggressive cold-email marketing, word of mouth, and partnerships with law enforcement agencies eager to solve cold cases. Journalist Todd Feathers uncovers questionable claims in Cybercheck reports, including supposed access to dark web accounts and the ability to retroactively place phones at crime scenes decades earlier. Despite producing few verifiable results, respected agencies like Ohio’s Bureau of Criminal Investigation still promoted the tool to other departments, helping expand its reach. Is there anyone willing to put this tech under the necessary scrutiny? Maybe in West Texas.
