Woman falsely identified as officer in Nowak case 'scared for safety'
The former Portsmouth constable says false online claims and AI posts have driven threats and forced her into a safe house.
- Former Portsmouth police constable Christi Hill has moved to a safe house after social media users and AI platforms falsely identified her as an arresting officer in the Henry Nowak murder case.
- Despite Hill having left the force 20 months before the December 2025 murder, her name and image were circulated due to a misinterpreted national police bravery award media release.
- Accusing Hampshire Constabulary of a "clear lack of support," Hill stated, "It is alarming to see how quickly a piece of outdated media can be weaponised by algorithms and accepted as fact by AI platforms."
- Hampshire Police condemned the "significant spread of misinformation" and threats against officers, while protests on Tuesday left eleven officers and a police dog injured near where Nowak died.
- The Independent Office for Police Conduct is investigating the police response to the night Nowak died, with a report on the case expected within the next three months.
