Arriving deputies, the sheriff’s office reported, said the father, who lives in the home, told officers he found Austin with his 15-year-old child and dialed 911.
Inside the home where the child lives, deputies reported
Why is the AI that wrote this trash so dedicated to reminding us that people live inside their own homes??
This is useful because you can’t just assume that the dad lives in the same house with the child. This is probably a detail from the police report that the editor thought was relevant enough to leave in.
Inside the home where the child lives
This is useful because it specifies that they are talking about the child’s home. With this being a crime story, they could also be taking about the suspect’s home, which was most likely searched after he was arrested. It is awkwardly worded because the editor probably wanted to avoid using the phrase “child’s home,” which could incorrectly imply ownership. Or, that’s just how it was worded in the police report and the editor was too lazy to fix it.
The article is using a police press release as its source. The reporter may also be looking at some official police report. Police reports are not written like news articles, and contain a lot of “legalese” phrasing, irrelevant detail, and repetition that an editor would need to rewrite and cobble together into a short news article. This doesn’t always work perfectly.
I’m not saying this is a well-written article, but there is nothing in here to indicate that it was written by AI. Just good 'ol human error.
