FACEBOOK-ADDICTED THIEF LEAVES HIS IDENTITY BEHIND

ADVERTISEMENTS

As I say constantly, you can't make this stuff up. The world of electronic evidence can be wickedly funny.

Case in point: Pennsylvania resident Jonathan Parker (19) burglarized a home in Martinsburg, W.V. nabbing a couple of diamond rings in the process. In the owner's bedroom was her computer. Well, heck, why not check my Facebook page while I'm here, thought Jonathan (who is clearly a few french fries short of a happy meal). And then, to prove that he is a worthy candidate for the "Dumbest Burglar of the Year Award" - and the competition is stiff - he leaves his Facebook page open.

Pretty much a slam dunk for the investigators. He has been charged with felony burglary.

You may not win that award Jonathan, but the courts are likely to award you 1-10 years as a guest of the state. At least you won't have to worry about the rent for a while.
