Fitbit contradicts husband's story of wife's murder - police
25 April 2017 US & Canada
A cheating US husband has been charged with killing his wife after police said data from her wearable fitness tracker contradicted his version of events.
Richard Dabate, 40, claimed to have seen Connie Dabate shot to death more than an hour before her Fitbit device recorded her last movements.
He told detectives that she was killed by a home intruder in the US state of Connecticut on 23 December 2015.
But police say her electronic device tells a different story.
Mr Dabate was charged this month with murder, tampering with physical evidence and making false statements about his 39-year-old wife's death.
