Sophie Parrish discovered in September 2022 that her brother-in-law, Karl Marshall, had created deepfake porn images of her without her consent. The images, which had been posted online since 2014, were made using AI to superimpose her face onto explicit content. At the time of discovery, there were no laws against deepfake pornography, leaving Marshall unpunished initially. Eventually, he was jailed in October 2024 for voyeurism and other crimes, having created 266 explicit deepfake images of various women and children. Sophie’s case highlights the urgent need for legal reforms regarding deepfake technology and its misuse.
