Here are a few stories of people who were arrested for what they posted on social media.
– Maxwell Marion Morton was charged with first-degree murder after he posted a photo of himself and his victim on Snapchat and one of his friends took a screenshot.
– Maxi Sopo fled Seattle after he was charged with bank fraud. He bragged about it on Facebook, and one of his friends with a former justice department official. Sopo was arrested and sent back to the U.S.
– Jacob Cox-Brown posted “Drivin drunk… classic
While social media has certainly been used to track down people who have committed crimes, it has also lead to the arrests of people who believed what they were posting were pranks. The lesson here is to always be careful about what you post on social media, or you could end up in jail.
