I'd like to say that a comedy of errors has taken place.  It seems our friend Gil got himself into trouble without doing anything wrong.  His identity was stolen and then later he was mistakenly identified as the wrong person. Society needs to do a better job of providing enough resources for the "accused" to ensure that the perpetrator doesn't get a free ride while the accused seems to lose everything.    We do live in a society where supposedly you are innocent till proven guilty, right?  How can one lose a drivers license and a job without 100% proof on the table?  Technology should be brought to bear to ensure that everyone is held harmless till all the facts are in. Is this achievable in our time?  I believe yes if the right companies and government assets are brought in early enough.
