Physical education teacher Dazhon Darien at Pikesville High School, was accused of falsifying the voice of principal Eric Eiswert in January, authorities said.
NBC News reported: "We now have conclusive evidence that the recording was not authentic," Baltimore County Police Chief Robert McCullough told reporters in Towson. "Itβs been determined the recording was generated through the use of artificial intelligence technology."
Darien was charged with disrupting school activities and other counts.
"As you could imagine, this has been a very difficult time for [the] Pikesville High School community, principal Eiswert and his family," Baltimore County Public Schools Superintendent Myriam Rogers said.
A judge signed on Wednesday afternoon an arrest warrant for Darien, who was caught Thursday morning at Baltimore/Washington International Thurgood Marshall Airport.
