I'm reading "American Idol winner Laine Hardy arrested after allegedly spying on woman/Louisiana college student found hidden audio recording device and told police she feared musician planted it there" (The Guardian).
She... confronted Hardy, who said he left a “bug” in her room that he had since thrown into a pond, police said. Allegedly, Hardy later put his confession in writing in a social media message the woman ultimately provided to investigators....
The woman used Google to determine the device [she found under her bed] was actually a voice-activated recorder like the one Hardy is alleged to have claimed to have thrown in a pond....
Police alleged that officers heard Hardy’s “very distinguishable voice”....
He won "American Idol" with that voice, and now that voice — along with his confession — identifies him to the police.
In happier days:

Good grief- can anyone in journalism write a fucking sentence that is comprehensible without having to be read two or three times?
First MTV VJ Nina Blackwood has a very “distinguishable voice”, nowadays. Something happened to it, you might say she lost it.
But because Serius satellite radio has an 80’s music channel with all the original MTV VJs; there’s Nina with her… new voice.
It looks like a male country-western singer again will win this season's American Idol.
The show's producers do not like this pattern, but the show's viewers keep voting for male country-western singers.
Laine Hardy, you've just won American Idol. What are you going to do next?"
I'm going to Disney World! Then I'm going to place a voice activated listening device in a woman's room, unbeknownst to her.
Good times.

Didn't the FBI do that to MLK?
So many unanswered questions, but I think he wanted to get caught.
I'm not a lawyer, and my expertise lies exclusively in watching Perry Mason episodes, so I didn't realize this was a crime. My extensive crime and spy novel experience led me to believe this was very common and legal, however gross. But I looked it up in the Arizona Revised Statues, which is the the operative law where I live, and from what I can tell intercepting any oral communication is a crime. There are some exceptions: https://www.azleg.gov/viewdocument/?docName=https://www.azleg.gov/ars/13/03012.htm
13-3012.14: The interception of oral communications by means of a child monitoring device.
The law has to cover every eventuality. Hence the difficulty of the law.
It's only legal when they do it. Right, NSA? No? FBI? Oh, DHS! Of course, of course. And is that someone from the Post Office there with you? Sorry, we have a hard time keeping track of all the federal agencies that routinely record our communications. Legally, of course.
On the question of "distinctive voices", here is Pfizer's new ad, which is not for their product paxlovid, which has not yet been approved. So they are pre-advertising it, telling you to ask your doctor for it, without mentioning its name. Apparently, non-vaccine treatment for COVID has somehow ceased to be an idea only a criminal idiot might entertain. On account of they expect to be in a position to make a buck off it soon.
But what I found interesting was the narrator's voice. Notice anything?
I was going to write a country song to make fun of this guy, but then I saw he could be charged with a felony. Now I feel sorry for him. He might have fucked up his life in a bad way.
Our criminal laws are so weird. Did you know that pointing a gun at someone's face is a misdemeanor? So strange how many violent crimes are misdemeanors, while spying on somebody is a felony.
Makes me think the people who wrote that law are worried about people spying on them and uncovering their secret shit.
