Note, the post title field isn't long enough, this is a skyrim themed username used on a 3rd party service. Not for the name used by character in Skyrim itself, which is not (without extensive and rare modding) a multiplayer game.
Incompetence in the justice system is a good reason to keep all trackers on and privacy features off.
That gives you enough data to robustly say "look, I couldn't have been in this chat conversation, because here is my data from that day and you'll clearly see I was running a marathon".
I personally keep 24x7 audio recordings of my life to try to get ahead of false accusations.
He has been set free, but his entire life has been destroyed by this "subtle" mistake. Once you have spent time, no employer will touch you with a barge pole. (innocence not withstanding)
Because of crap like this, our business has a standing policy of always using copy and paste when transferring data. We view it as a show-stopping bug when we can't do that from one system to another.
Saves us an incredible amount of drama. The hard part is following through when the data is simple.
>While the girl had described to police the physical features of the man with whom she had been communicating, court documents said investigators were unable to conduct a detailed interview with her because she was receiving medical care due to a deep depression.
So they couldn't actually communicate with the accuser? That seems like basic 6th amendment violation.
Meanwhile the only connection is "this username used this IP" and nothing else?
Even just a little follow up where someone actually pastes the username in somewhere to search and finds nothing and gets curious would seem to uncover all this.
This seems absurdly little to even get to a trial with...

Do hope he can claim compensation...
How could he get convicted if they didn't find any evidence?
It's one thing to get the wrong guy, but another to put him in jail without any evidence.
