Jonathan Parker Was Nabbed By His Own Vanity - Jailed After Logging Into Facebook During Robbery, Leaving Account On Victim’s Computer


Martinsburg, West Virginia (The Weekly Vice) – Jonathan Parker, a 19-year-old Pennsylvania man was arraigned Tuesday after leaving a big clue behind at the home he allegedly burglarized – his Facebook account.

Investigators say Parker broke into a woman’s home April 28 and stole two rings valued at $3,500.

But the call of social networking was too much for Parker to ignore; before leaving the home, he reportedly used the victim's computer to log into his Facebook account - and then forgot to log back off.

According to the Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office, an investigation was launched after a woman told deputies her home had been ransacked and burglarized.

She told deputies that her computer had been turned on and an unfamiliar Facebook account was still up on the screen. She then discovered two diamond rings, worth over $3,500, were also missing from her bedroom.

It was later learned that the suspect and the victim had a mutual friend who admitted that Parker had asked him to help him with the robbery.

Parker was booked into the Eastern Regional Jail on charges of felony daytime burglary. He is currently being in held in lieu of $10,000 bond.

If convicted, he faces up to ten years in prison.

Probably had to log into his farmville account and harvest his farmville fields. I think 1/3 of the entire country has some farm or restaurant thingee on facebook now.

I know a lot of girls who are addicted to Facebook, but not many guys. At least not on this level.

Who is emo here?

I'll say it again - I love it when the criminals make it easy for the cops. They gotta love it too. Even Chief Wigham (sp?) from the Simpsons could solve this one. Well, maybe not, but Homer could.

Did someone above seriously justify the physical assault of a child?

You think it's ok for an adult male to do this to a child who's a fraction of his weight?

Please do not procreate

Facebook sucks. I joined not too long ago and all I get is random ass people trying to be my friend. I have no clue why it was important enough to get yourself busted to check your shit. Myspace maybe, but not facebook. I'm just kidding nether would have been important enough this dude is a jackass!

Wow, it would be so funny if she came home & murdered him. It's really not worth stealing these days.. If you're a lowlife piece of shit with no education, you'll do what this junky does. Stay in school before someone kills you!
