Google Street View images may form critical evidence in a homicide investigation.
One of the two key images in the case shows a man in a small Spanish village appearing to load a suspicious bundle into his car.
Two suspects are in custody and have been charged with homicide, one year after the victim was reported missing.
Since the recognizable cars carrying 360-degree cameras were first deployed in 2007, the internet has been awash with curious Google Street View (https://www.androidauthority.com/time-travel-with-google-street-view-3175365/) pictures. Few, however, can be as potentially consequential as this one from Tajueco, Spain, taken in October. The Street View image has been cited as evidence in a homicide investigation, according to the English language version of the Spanish news publication El Pais (https://english.elpais.com/international/2024-12-18/caught-by-google-maps-photo-of-man-putting-suspicious-bundle-in-his-trunk-key-to-solving-a-murder.html).
Capturing pictures of the tiny Spanish village for the first time since the Street View project began, one Google photo shows a man leaning over the open trunk of a red car. The trunk appears to contain something wrapped in a white package, the shape of which certainly raises an eyebrow. Spanish authorities allege that the image is linked to the disappearance of a 33-year-old Cuban man who was a resident of the city of Soria in the same Spanish state.
