gang members arrested facebook

Gang members arrested facebook
Gang members arrested facebook - Suspects bragged about crimes on FB? Police arrested rival gang members connected to three slayings, based on what they were saying about the cases on Twitter and Facebook. The two gangs often had shoot-outs that led to the slayings. According to police, the gang members then bragged about the shootings on the social media sites.

Forty-three Gang Members Arrested After Bragging About Murders On Facebook & Twitter, If you are going to do a crime, the key is to not get caught, and posting your dirt on Facebook is definitely one way to get the police to come knocking on your door. Several New York gang members are in serious trouble as police are investigating three murders and have arrested 43 rival gang members based on evidence collected from monitoring what the gang members were saying about the cases on Twitter and Facebook, authorities said.
According to Reuters, the 25 accused members of the Wave Gang and 18 accused members of rival Hoodstarz have been terrorizing
streets in Brooklyn with shootouts that led to the killing of three people and wounding of several others, New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.
The gang members, ages 15 to 21, bragged about the shootings on the social media sites Twitter, Facebook and YouTube. The tension between the two crews began in August and apparently the gangsters never took firing classes as they missed their intended targets and so far have killed an innocent bystander and wounded a 9-year-old boy and his dad.
Wave Gang members often robbed 13 and 14-year-olds by threatening to steal their bikes and electronics to intimidate them into joining their gangs, Hynes said. The 43 gang members were indicted on Thursday on charges including murder, assault, reckless endangerment, robbery and weapon possession, with potential sentences ranging from a year to life in prison.

Since their shooting game seems to be off point, I hope their knuckle game is a little sharper because the gladiator school where these idiots are going, they are going to need it.
