Risk Digest
The flagship, near-daily updated database of documented AI hallucination and sanction incidents in legal proceedings worldwide. Each entry is a structured record, not a news article: jurisdiction, court, judge (if named), the AI tool implicated, penalty amount, ruling date, a confirmed-vs-reported status flag, and a link to the primary court order. Serves the 'check risk' and 'track regulation' tasks: a lawyer, risk manager, or journalist scanning for new sanctions, a specific jurisdiction, or a specific tool. Excludes narrative commentary, procedural how-to guidance (belongs in Workflows), and rule text summaries (belongs in Regulation). This group is the site's differentiation engine: freshness and per-record sourcing are the moat, so every record must carry a last-verified timestamp distinct from the ruling date.
Confirmed
A court order or docket entry has been independently verified.
Reported — unverified
Still pending independent verification against a primary source.

AI research output on the Athens suitcase killing presents conflicting case dates, a formally corrected 'admitted killing' headline, and superseded leads as equally current. A primary-source check with a last-verified timestamp is what separates usable facts from model output on this live pre-trial case.

A verified, citable record of the Trump-related Supreme Court rulings Chief Justice Roberts personally authored, from Trump v. United States through the 2025-26 term, with docket numbers, vote counts, coalitions, and primary-opinion links for each case. Term-level statistics show his authorship pattern is the most reliable predictor of how the Court disposes of Trump cases — a genuine mix of wins and losses, not a rubber stamp.

The viral claim that Trump earned a 2.5% contractor fee on White House ballroom donations is unproven: the fee term is real in the released agreement, but no evidence ties the money to Trump. The actual case is the FOIA suit that forced disclosure — not a contractor-fee dispute.

Measured by the credibility factors courts actually use, the Ruemmler-Epstein transcript dispute cuts both ways: her 'inherently incredible' dismissal of Giuffre's allegations was made without investigation or personal knowledge, while her own testimony shows classic impeachment indicators — conflicting emails, financial and personal ties to Epstein, and documentary contradiction. The case study models a method for separating supported credibility judgments from unsupported ones.
