Student Googles Himself, Finds He's Been Accused of Murder
University of Florida student Zachary Garcia Googled his name recently and was shocked to find that he had been accused of murder. Police had released Garcia's driver's license photo in connection with a September crime in which one 15-year-old was shot and killed after breaking into a home with another teenaged boy. It was Zachery Garcia -- with a "e" -- that police were actually after.
"I was just very shocked to find my picture and the article saying that I was convicted of a felony murder charge," he said, "and I was just very shocked and angry that someone put my name up there and said I did something I didn't do."
"Everybody makes mistakes," Garcia added. "I work at Publix and I might get somebody's sub (order) wrong. But for somebody to get (the photo of a suspect) wrong...it's not a sandwich, it's somebody's life you're playing with."
