In an effort to reduce the crime spike of 2035, AI is now used to predict if someone will commit a crime in the future. The accused can be sentenced and punished as if they had already committed the crime and the courts now work under the guise of guilty until proven innocent.
In a land-mark case, the first woman has been predicted to murder her ex-partner – a prominent government official. Slandered by the press, and isolated from her friends, the woman faces the court.
The prosecution pieces together her digital crumbs and her social media habits, internet searches, messages and private videos are suddenly broadcast to the world. She is presented as unstable, emotionally repressed and absolutely capable of murder. Enraged and determined for the truth, the woman is left to wonder if AI knows her better than herself?
