Christi Hill, a former Hampshire police constable who left the force in April 2024, has been falsely identified online and on the AI platform Grok as one of the arresting officers in the Henry Nowak murder case, which occurred in December 2025—20 months after her departure. Hill and another officer were wrongly named in bodycam footage circulated on social media and AI platforms, forcing the other officer to leave his home and leading to death threats. The misidentification originated from a photo in a national police bravery award release, and Hampshire constabulary has asked the public to avoid spreading false information while the Independent Office for Police Conduct investigates the police response to the incident.
