“I was scared, that was the main thing” Woodruff told The Post Sunday evening after realizing cops weren’t joking. “What is going on?”

A Detroit woman said she was falsely arrested for carjacking while eight months pregnant due to faulty facial recognition technology, according to a new lawsuit.

“I was scared, that was the main thing,” Woodruff told The Post Sunday evening after realizing cops weren’t joking. “What is going on?”Woodruff later learned she was being “implicated as a suspect” from a photo lineup shown to the victim following an “unreliable facial recognition match,” according to the court documents.

The pair stopped by a BP gas station and the woman spoke with people there. The victim and female then traveled to another location where the victim was robbed by another man, according to the suit. Once the video was grabbed from the store, facial recognition was run that identified Woodruff as the woman in the video, the lawsuit states. The victim also picked Woodruff as the female he was with during the robbery, though he was shown a photo of her from 2015, the lawsuit alleges.Police had access to a current driver’s license photo, but didn’t show it to the victim, and Det. Oliver also failed to show the male suspect a photo of Woodruff after he was arrested, the lawsuit states.
