"Per the probable cause statement from Springfield, Missouri, police seeking a warrant for Schaefer's arrest, his phone not only had location data putting him at the scene of the crime during the period in which the vehicles were damaged, but he also spilled the beans to ChatGPT in a way that can only be described as one of the most boneheaded admissions of criminal liability ever set down in a court filing."
"About ten minutes after Schaefer's phone's location data shows him leaving the parking lot, he allegedly asked ChatGPT, "how fucked am i bro," while explaining he broke a bunch of "windzhaileds or random cars" before inquiring, "qilll i go to jail?" Despite the grievous crimes against the English language, ChatGPT told him what could happen were he to get caught."
"Schaefer asserted that he "was being chull ab it," which we believe translates to a claim he was being nonchalant during the commission of his alleged crimes. "It felt rrlly nice to fucktheir dhit up," Schaefer added before going on to explain that "it was me" and "i did thatz" before,"
A Missouri State University sophomore, Ryan Schaefer, is suspected of vandalizing 17 vehicles in a freshman parking lot in late August. Witnesses identified him from surveillance footage, and police recovered other apartment evidence linking him to the incidents. Phone location data placed him at the scene during the damage period. Approximately ten minutes after leaving the lot, he asked ChatGPT whether he would get caught and described having damaged vehicles. His ChatGPT messages and explicit admissions on the phone formed part of probable cause for a warrant and arrest pursuit.
