Facebook Killa’
I was browsing through Valleywag.com today and found an interesting article about Leon Craig Ramsden, age 19, who stabbed and killed Paul Gilligan, age 31, at the Pepper Alley bar six months ago.
Oddly enough, just hours before the murder, Ramsden decided to upload the picture on the left and update his Facebook status, saying: “I’m twisted at home. My head’s up my —–. I feel like killin some1 need to stay off the hard stuff ha —– it it’s Saturday ha.”
Sentenced to at least 17 years for the crime, Facebook’s role in the case is interesting…can we use the revolutionary social networking tool to help prevent crime, like in the film, Minority Report?

We can if people are dumb enough to share that type of information. I can’t help but laugh at this fool:
“Fuck it, it’s Saturday”
