The Marion County Sheriff's Office wrongly identified Bazil as a U.S. citizen on a public inmate dashboard because he held a valid Indiana driver's license and Social Security card. A jail supervisor manually changed the citizenship field to the United States to correct a perceived error but later admitted the mistake. Bazil entered the U.S. illegally on Jan. 7, 2024, was released into the country, and received a Social Security card on Feb. 29, 2024.
