Incident 6755 Report
High School Athletic Director in Baltimore County Created Racist Deepfake Audio Impersonating Principal

2024-01-15

Dazhon Darien, former athletic director at Pikesville High School in Baltimore, used AI to create a deepfake audio clip impersonating Principal Eric Eiswert, embedding racist and antisemitic remarks. The clip, intended to discredit Eiswert, spread widely, leading to threats and his placement on administrative leave. On April 28, 2025, Darien was sentenced to four months in jail after pleading guilty to disturbing school operations.
