Maine police department apologizes for AI-doctored evidence photo
“Clearly, we should have looked further into the shared image,” Westbrook police said after posting an AI-altered photo of drug evidence.
It's possible, but it's not that easy. Due to chain of evidence and each new evidence introduced is done under oath and under the penalty of perjury. So for someone to do that it really has to be department wide objective and the procecutors to be either incompetent or also complicit and then the court staff to be fooled along with the judge. Most evidence is also public in the court records, so anyone can see it and media often shares it to even wider audience.
The level of transparancy state courts offer is hands down the best thing about US "justice" system. Well mostly the only good thing, but still.

Florida lawmakers sound alarm over plans ‘to send pregnant women & children’ to ‘Alligator Alcatraz’
Lawmakers in Florida are raising alarm over documents suggesting immigrant children and pregnant women could be detained at 'Alligator Alcatraz.'
A draft operational plan obtained by the Miami Herald suggests minors could indeed be transported to the controversial site in the Everglades. The 35-page undated document details protocols to "separate minors from unrelated adults" and to provide "snacks and water" to minors, pregnant women and detainees with medical conditions during transport.
"The State of Florida is planning to send pregnant women and children to the 'Alligator Alcatraz' detention camp," wrote State Senator Carlos Guillermo Smith on social media. "This is totally un-American. We cannot be silent."

The Complete History of Honda Acty: From Classic to Contemporary
For over four decades, the Honda Acty has served as one of Japan’s most dependable and charming kei trucks. Small in size but big in character, the Acty adapted to the changing needs of drivers — from urban couriers to off-road farmers — without ever losing its compact, functional DNA.
Whether you’re a collector, restorer, or just curious about what makes the Acty a cult favorite, this guide explores its complete history: from the classic first generation to its modern final form.
🛠️ What Is the Honda Acty?
Introduced in 1977, the Honda Acty (short for "Activity") was built to comply with Japan’s kei-class regulations — light trucks with strict limits on size and engine displacement. It offered a practical solution for businesses, farmers, and city drivers alike, quickly becoming a staple across Japan.
🚙 First Generation (1977–1988): The Original Workhorse
Chassis: TN Acty Truck and Van
Engine: 545cc 2-cylinder, mid-mounted
Layout: Rear-wheel drive
Notable Traits: Compact size, impressive durability, basic interior
The first-gen Acty filled the gap left by Honda’s TN series. With its rear-mid engine layout and short overhangs, it was remarkably maneuverable — perfect for narrow alleyways and agricultural work.
⚙️ Second Generation (1988–1999): Versatility Takes Over
Chassis Codes: HA1/HA2 (truck), HH1/HH2 (van)
Engine: 547cc → later upgraded to 656cc E07A
Additions:
4WD
Automatic transmission
Special trims: Attack (off-road), Crawler (6-wheel variant)
This generation was the most versatile, bringing increased engine power, drivetrain options, and even more customization. The “Attack” model, with its ultra-low gearing and diff lock, became a fan-favorite for off-road tasks.
🛡️ Third Generation (1999–2009): Safety Meets Simplicity
Engine: E07Z 656cc, fuel-injected
Chassis Codes: HA6/HA7 (truck), HH5/HH6 (van)
Notable Upgrades:
Dual airbags
Power steering
Better fuel economy
Cleaner styling
The Acty became more refined in its third form. Fuel injection improved reliability, while creature comforts like power steering and optional air conditioning made daily driving more comfortable without compromising utility.
🚧 Fourth Generation (2009–2021): The Final Act(y)
Engine: E07Z, ~44 hp
Chassis: HA8 (2WD), HA9 (4WD)
Improvements:
Safety: Dual airbags, ABS
Tighter turning radius
NVH reduction (less cabin noise)
Special Edition: 2018 “Spirit Colour Style” (inspired by Honda T360)
This final generation stayed true to Acty’s roots while improving comfort and compliance. Unfortunately, rising safety regulations and kei vehicle market shifts led to the end of production in April 2021.
📉 Why Was the Honda Acty Discontinued?
Tightening emissions and safety standards, combined with changing market demands, led Honda to retire the Acty. While kei trucks remain popular, the cost of updating the Acty to new standards no longer made financial sense for Honda.
🏁 The Acty Legacy
Despite ending production, the Honda Acty lives on in enthusiast communities, import markets, and off-road builds. Whether you're restoring a classic or daily-driving a late-model 4WD, each Acty represents:
Clever Japanese engineering
Modularity and simplicity
A connection to a unique automotive subculture
🧰 Final Thoughts
From its humble beginnings to its quiet retirement, the Honda Acty’s complete history tells a story of evolution, utility, and timeless appeal. It’s a machine that served everyone — and now finds a second life as a collectible and conversation starter around the world.
