Man asks Siri to help him hide a body, Siri helps prosecute him

[iMore.com]

A Florida man accused of killing his roommate reportedly asked Siri for help on how and where to hide the body. The original response that query generated, long since removed by Apple, offered classic pulp fiction locations such as swamps, reservoirs, foundries, and dumps. (The query now returns "I used to know the answer to that question...") Yet that same question, along with other data such as flashlight usage and location, are now being offered into evidence by prosecutors at trial.

Haha yeah me too. I've actually asked her the same thing that man did multiple times. Lol! I didn't even know that apple removed it though. They must have done it fairly recently.

Internet folklore is replete with stories of errant text messages ending up in the hands of authorities who ended up convicting a perp for the crime they committed... criminals is largely a stupid bunch o' folks.
