So apparently it actually works both ways: careless Facebook use can both get you robbed and get you arrested for burglary. 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. Jonathan Parker remains in custody on $10,000 bail, facing a maximum 10 year prison sentence if convicted. A friend of the

defendant said Parker had asked him for help breaking into the victim’s house the previous night, so things are not looking too good for the perp. What do you think: is this a case of Facebook addiction, or just a very dim burglar? If robbery weren’t such a serious matter we might consider this story pretty much hilarious.
