Fugitive Juggler Caught by Facial-Recognition Technology. US citizen Neil Stammer who jumped bail fourteen years ago on child sexual abuse charges has been arrested in Nepal after the use of facial recognition technology. He illegally entered Nepal eight years ago with a fake US passport, but was caught when the Diplomatic Security Service ran FBI wanted posters through facial-recognition software in order to uncover passport fraud. Mr. Stammer was also a street performer and juggler prior to his arrest.
