A man’s 10.5-year prison sentence for manslaughter was tossed out after AI was used at his sentencing hearing.
The family of Christopher Pelkey gave several victim impact statements in court — but the one that stood out was a statement from Pelkey himself, even though he died in a roadrage incident in 2021.
Pelkey’s sister wrote what she believed he would have said if he were alive and had an AI-generated version of him read it in court. But lawyers for Gabriel Paul Horcasitas, the man convicted in Pelkey’s killing, appealed his sentencing because of this AI video — and they won.

“They call it pneumonia, and pneumonia, you know, years ago you could treat pneumonia easier,” he said. “The microbes and the germs have gotten stronger disproportionately, but we'll help them.”
Russian media initially reported that the researcher broke a test tube containing plague bacteria in late September, came down with severe pneumonia and then died of her illness. The World Health Organization said she died of severe pneumonia overnight into Oct. 2.

Thick black ash coated roof terraces in the north of Madrid's center, the Spanish capital, where 70,000 people were evacuated as residents were forced to keep their windows closed by the smell of throat-irritating smoke.
Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez visited the fire zone near Madrid and said the priority was to "save lives" while warning that a "complex" fight lay ahead. His government declared a national emergency.
Fires have burned more than 320,000 acres of forest already this year in Spain, up from an annual average of more than 240,000 acres over the past decade, Sanchez said. He said more favorable weather on Saturday offered "a window of opportunity" for fire crews to bring the blazes under control.
