A Sydney court convicted Enrico Pucci, 50, on 30 domestic violence charges against his former partner Stacey, including remotely manipulating her Tesla via the vehicle's app. He added an unauthorised 'parental control' profile giving him command over the car's temperature, locks, curfew and speed, at one point triggering Valet Mode to cap it at 40km/h while she was driving. Police documents describe him boasting he was 'in her car' and 'in her maps' while stalking her.
