According to 404 Media and Court Watch, an FBI task force officer with the Livonia Undercover Resistance to Exploitation Unit (LURE) in Michigan created a profile on the queer-focused dating app Taimi using an AI-generated image of a teenager-appearing male named "Caleb," with no age listed. After the investigator, posing as Caleb, said he was 15, the man replied that he was interested, sent sexually explicit messages over several days and arranged to drive to a meetup while believing Caleb's parents were out; he was taken into custody on arrival. Investigators also used Thomson Reuters CLEAR to check his phone number, Clearview AI to match his face and Flock to track his car; the man asked to speak with the officer two hours after booking and admitted everything, and the report says he works at an Illinois high school.
