Camden Lee, a 15-year-old, found himself thrust into a nightmare when the NYPD mistakenly identified him as a murder suspect through a social media post. After an image of him was shared for allegedly discharging a firearm at a high-profile event, he experienced immediate life-changing consequences despite the NYPD retracting their statement and declining to charge him. The incident has sparked concerns about the NYPD's misinformation policies and accountability, particularly as they have not publicly acknowledged their error, leaving Lee and his family feeling threatened and unsafe.
"I see the NYPD logo. I see me. I see 'suspect wanted for murder,'" Lee recalled. "I couldn't believe what was happening. Then everything went blurry."
