According to The Journal, a 19-year-old Pennsylvania man was arraigned earlier this week on a charge of felony daytime robbery. How did police catch him? Simple: the burglar left a trail, by way of checking his Facebook account before leaving the house with two diamond rings and forgetting to log out.

Facebook addiction to the extreme. Yo' robbers, I'm happy for you and I will let you finish, but all the other robbers know to get the hell out of the house as fast as possible. AS FAST AS POSSIBLE.

Kinda reminds me of those girls that fell into a hole and updated their status on FB instead of calling someone for help. =P

*points the gun at the victim*
*takes his cellphone out of his pocket*
*logs in to Twitter*
*sets status to "Pointing the gun at the victim"*

*sets status to "Pulling the trigger"*

*sets status to "Watching victim die"*

*sets status to "being surrounded by police"*

*two weeks later...*

*sets status to "trying to escape prison"*

...............

Ahhhh, what a sore.

Facebook sure is addictive; even a burglar can't resist the urge.

I dunno, if he had gotten away with it, it would have had style. He could have made it an imaginative calling card - leaving humerous web pages in the history. Very comic book villain

Even better - you could leave a set of choclates on the table and a note 'thank you for being burgled with 'not a trace' burglary - the easy way to become poorer, quickly'

You and your kind, all you care about is Facebook. The internets deserve a better class of criminal. And I'm gonna give it to them!
