• Prosecutor Marlene Orjuela accidentally played two unrelated videos, including an AI-enhanced explicit clip, during Álvaro Uribe's bribery trial.
• The incident occurred during an attempt to present audio evidence of conversations linked to the case, leading to laughter in the courtroom.
• Uribe, Colombia's president from 2002 to 2010, faces charges of bribery, witness tampering, and procedural fraud, which could result in up to 12 years in prison if convicted.
