SEX OFFENDER ON THE RUN CAUGHT AFTER GIRLFRIEND LIKES SHERIFF'S DEPT. ON FACEBOOK ~ Insane Asylum Blog

Once again Facebook exploits a person's stupidity and catches another criminal. 29-year-old Dyllan Naecher of Maryland is a registered sex offender. He went to Virginia with the idea of not being found, but when his girlfriend liked the Tazewell County Sheriff's department on Facebook (their local police department), they used the information attached to her profile to determine that Naecher was with her in Virginia.

Naecher was picked up at their house and is being charged with failing to register as a sex offender in Virginia. His girlfriend may be facing charges for harboring a fugitive.

Naecher could also face charges for crossing state lines under the Adam Walsh Act, the law named after the son of America's Most Wanted host, John Walsh.

Other acts of stupidity on Facebook include a Mississippi man using Facebook Places to check into a location he was breaking into, an Oregon man on the run from child support checked into a restaurant in Arizona, and another Oregon man who skipped out on probation and fled to Alabama only to be caught because he posted EVERYTHING he did.
