Your PHONE Is Taking Notes: Texts Become Evidence

Mock news bulletin: your phone has been taking notes the whole time, and it never forgets a word. BNO News reports that in a sex crime accusation in Long Beach, California, the law can reach into private conversations. Texts about meeting up can become evidence. Messages sent after an alleged event can too. The piece also advises looking at the complete conversation rather than a few selected lines, which is plain kitchen-table sense. You wouldn't judge a steer by one hoof, and you shouldn't judge anybody by one screenshot. The story names no one and gives no outcome, so nobody here is convicted of a thing. I'm calm. I'm so calm I'm vibrating.
