No justice for Megan Meier

Mom in MySpace case says it was properly dismissed:

As I’m sure we all know by now Lori Drew’s fraud conviction was tossed by a federal judge. As I’m sure you also know Drew is the one thought responsible into harassing 13-year-old Megan Meier with a fake MySpace into killing herself.

Megan’s mother, Tina Meier, said she was disappointed with the ruling but she wouldn’t want to be Lori Drew and thinks she’s already serving a life sentence.

I wish I could agree you with you Mrs. Meier but it doesn’t seem like Drew has any remorse whatsoever as Drew praised the ruling and claims that she “simply did not do” what she was accused of.

Even though Lori Drew isn’t going to jail like she deserves the karma train will pull in to her station one day.

Mercades Nichols back in jail

Teen in notorious videotaped beating back in jail:

The so called ring leader in the videotaped beating of Victoria Lindsay is back in jail.

18-year-old Mercades Nichols was arrested this past Wednesday for violating the terms of her probation.

It seems that Ms. Nichols got into some kind of dispute with a neighbor then drove her grandmother’s car up on to the neighbors’ lawn aiming towards the neighbors.

She is currently being held without bail.

Personally I’m surprised it took this long for her to violate her parole.

Man arrested for posting teen girl’s nude pics on MySpace

Arlington teen’s nude photos posted on MySpace:

An unnamed 18-year-old has nbeen arrested by police in Washington for posting the nude pics of a 14-year-old Arlington, WA girl on MySpace and threatening the girl.

“I’m not gonna ever leave you alone til your dead,” one of the messages said, according to a search warrant filed in Snohomish Superior Court.

The man allegedly demanded the girl take nude pictures of herself and send them to him. He then posted the pictures on MySpace pages on the Internet, police said.

What a freakin’ tool. I hope his offenses are made well known while he’s in lock up.

And for you sick freaks who are looking for the pics I have it on good authority they can be found here.

Modaff gets 4 years for child solicitation

Marseilles man gets 4 years for abusing boy:

Daniel Modaff, who I originally posted about here, was sentenced to 4 years in prison for trying to have a sexual relationship with a 13-year-old boy he communicated with through MySpace.

The original article stated that Modaff had sexual contact with the boy but now prosecutors say the contact never went beyond hugging and kissing. I still threw up in my mouth a little for having to type that.

Modaff does have to register as a sex offender for life.

Ohio man accused of MySpace kidnapping

Alleged MySpace kidnapper indicted:

20-year-old Darren Casey is accused of using a phony MySpace to set up a meeting with a woman who he allegedly tried to kidnap. Casey was indicted on attempted kidnapping charges among others.

He’s accused of using the fake MySpace to set up a meeting with a 21-year-old woman at a home in Bellbrook, Ohio. When she arrived at the house Casey allegedly jumped out wearing a mask and tried to grab her. Luckily she escaped.

Ironically Casey was also identified through MySpace with the victim’s help.

Enough with the MySpace hook ups already. Again if you’re meeting someone from online for the first time meet in the day, in a public place, and always bring a friend.

Furniture store used Iran twitter tags to promote store

Habitat sorry for Iran Tweeting:

While it’s not a crime per se it is a scummy business practice so I’m going to allow it. Plus it did break one of the unwritten laws of twitter.

Anyway, UK furniture store Habitat got caught using twitter hashtags for the ongoing situation in Iran to hep promote the store. Now allow me to translate.

On twitter some people use what are called hashtags on their posts. Hashtags are keywords people can use so others who are looking for twitter posts on that subject can find them. For instance if you were tweeting about the situation in Iran you would put #iran at the end of your tweet.

What Habitat is accused of doing is using hashtags about Iran at the end of their tweets but the tweets were about promoting their stores.

One of the controversial messages - called tweets - which appeared before being removed by Habitat, read: HabitatUK: #MOUSAVI Join the database for free to win a £1,000 gift card.

Habitat has removed the offending tweets but has not said who was responsible.

Dan-da-Man arrested for child solicitation

Mims man accused of luring teens online:

39-year-old Daniel J. Coyle of Mims, Florida was arrested for soliciting underage girls on MySpace for the purposes of child pornography.

Allegedly Coyle had 600 fake personas that he would pose as teenage girls in order to gain his victims’ confidence. Then with the fake persona he would solicit girls for pornographic pictures and videos of themselves. After a while the fake girls would introduce the victims to their ‘mentor’ Coyle who was using the screen name of Dan-da-Man.

One of the girls he approached told her mom who called police. The Brevard County Sheriff’s Office believes that Ciyle may have had multiple victims…

The Sexual Offender Registration Tracking Unit of the Sheriffs Office is asking that anyone who may have been victimized by Coyle, contact Agent Mike Spadafora at (321)-633-8419 or CRIMELINE at 1-800-423-TIPS (8477). All calls to CRIMELINE are confidential, and callers can remain anonymous and be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000 for information leading to an arrest.

Parents, just because your kids may be moving to Facebook doesn’t mean they still aren’t using MySpace. Be vigilant.

Michigan teen sentenced in Facebook sex assault

Eastpointe teen sentenced in Facebook sex case:

I originally posted about Michael Thomas Robinson here. He was the teen from Eastpointe, Michigan who was arrested for befriending a girl on Facebook then later breaking into her home to rape her.

Yesterday he was sentenced to 1-15 years behind bars after the charges were lowered to felony home invasion and second-degree criminal sexual conduct.

Robinson told Judge Don Miller he wanted to “apologize for my actions,” just before the sentence was handed down for what Miller described as a “very serious crime.”

I would lay odds that the only reason he’s sorry is because he got caught.

Two more Stickam related sexual assaults

Man accused of videotaping sexual assaults on 2 teenage girls:

Emo Douchebag II is 23-year-old Richard Alan Chaney of Costa Mesa, California. He’s accused of not only assaulting not just one underage girl that he met on Stickam but two.

The first girl was 14 from Texas whom he met on Stickam. While she was visiting relatives in California she sneaked out of the house and allegedly had sex with Chaney. The assault took place in June of 2008. It wasn’t until almost a year later that the girl’s mother called the Orange County Sexual Assault Felony Enforcement team to report Chaney.

While searching Chaney’s house investigators found evidence of another assault of a 17-year-old girl that Chaney met on either Stickam, MySpace or both. He videotaped himself having sex with the 17-year-old while she was unconscious. Now why does that sound familiar? Hmmmmm? Not only does it sound like the M.O. of serial rapist Andrew Luster it also sounds like the other accused Stickam rapist John Hock.

He also videotaped himself having sex with the 14-year-old too.

Who says there’s no child molesters on Stickam? You don’t have to be a middle aged man to be one.

Federal charges for Delaware man who had sex with teen

Federal charges in MySpace encounter:

The cowardly lion over there is 37-year-old David Hart of Wilmington, Delaware. He was arrested for meeting a 14-year-old girl from Allentown, PA over MySpace, picking her up in Allentown and then taking her to his place for sex instead of her going to school. And oh yeah her 12-year-old brother came along for the ride. He played Playstation while Hart was allegedly molesting his sister.

And since Hart allegedly crossed state lines to have sex with the girl he’s been federally charged with transporting a minor over state lines to engage in criminal sexual activity.

There will probably be tampering with evidence charges too since he called a friend and told him to delete Hart’s MySpace account.

NJ teen girl gets probation for posting nude pics of herself on MySpace

NJ girl, 14, gets probation for posting nude pics:

You remember the 14-year-old girl from Clifton, New Jersy who posted nude pics of herself on MySpace don’t you? Of course you do, I posted about it here.

Anyway the big stink at the time is that prosecutors wanted to charge her with child porn charges and make her register as a sex offender. Luckily some common sense prevailed. She’s only getting six months of counseling and probation and if she stays out of trouble the charges will be dropped.

Still no charges for the parent(s) that let this happen.

Twiminals?

Twitter message could be cyber criminal at work:

I guess it was only a matter of time since twitter has been accepted by the mainstream. Thanks a lot Oprah.

Now cyber criminals are using twitter to send malicious links to sites that infect youir computer with malware.

According to the article the scammers use popular hashtags which means I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re using the unrest in Iran, which is a hot topic on twitter right now, to carry out their schemes.

That’s unbelievably low.

9-year-old girl solicited over BlogTV

9-year-old solicited on Web site for children:

A 9-year-old girl from my current hometown Charlotte, North Carolina was solicited over the live streaming video site BlogTV. Not only that but it was in their supposedly kid friendly section called BlogTV Junior. A man who was watching the girl’s broadcast allegedly asked the girl to take off her clothes.

The family had a local news crew come to their house to show them what happens on the site.

The girl’s parents showed us how it works. After logging on, we saw a young girl broadcasting from somewhere.

Almost instantly, an online user writes: “What are you wearing? Can I see the pants? Lower the cam.”

Why does that sound familiar? Oh yeah, it’s the same thing that happens on Stickam.

Speaking of Stickam, BlogTV had a similar response when contacted by the news station…

“The live broadcasts in the junior section are monitored 24/7. If there are any problems in the chat, the broadcaster and other viewers can flag the show or contact the moderation team. A moderator is sent to the room within a matter of moments.”

Yet another website with the ‘inmates running the asylum’ philosophy. After a ‘matter of moments’ it may already be too late.

The man who solicited the girl is being investigated.

Personally if I had a 9-year-old daughter she wouldn’t even be allowed near a webcam.

Michigan man charged with assaulting Ohio girls

FBI: Mich. man planned assault, drove to Ohio:

The man from Ann Arbor, Michigan who allegedly sexually assaulted two girls from Xenia, Ohio has been captured by the FBI.

Church music director 32-year-old David Zobel of Ann Arbor has been charged with the assault.

Authorities found a camera containing sexually explicit images of the girls at Zobel’s house.

Of course Zoebel denies the charge. I’m sure the camera just magically appeared in his house.

Ga. man posed as woman on MySpace to lure teen boys

Man Accused Of Posing As Girl On MySpace; Charged With Child Molestation:

26-year-old Antoine Louis Johnson of Gwinnett County, Georgia has been arrested for molesting a 13-year-old boy. Police allege that Johnson posed as a 16-year-old girl on MySpace in order to gain the trust of a 13-year-old boy. Johnson allegedly said as the 16-year-old girl that she would have sex with the boy if he would perform sex acts on her brother. The molestation was said to have taken place in 2008 with the biy just coming forward recently.

Johnson is said to have approached a friend of the victim which turned out to be a special victims unit investigator.

Police believe that Johnson may have more victims and ask anyone with information to call 770-513-5300.

Parents, this is another opportunity to teach your teenage sons about how sex really works. No real girl/woman is going to have sex with them if they have sex with their brother. It doesn’t even work that way in porn.
