Seven Sex Offenders Arrested With MySpace Data

Great news! From my home state even…

From Computer World:

Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott said Thursday that police in the state have arrested six convicted sex offenders for violating parole by posting online profiles on MySpace.com. The social networking site provided data on the profiles to the attorney general.

The arrests are the result of what the state is calling the first crackdown in the country on sex offenders stemming from data that MySpace provided to several state attorneys general in May.

MySpace had first refused the request from attorneys general in eight states to turn over the names of convicted sex offenders who had registered on its site, but relented when the officials subpoenaed the data.

    In the great scheme of things you get an A+ just for effort. Where exactly you confused everybody was first on your particulars. As it is said, the devil is in the details… And that couldn’t be more correct right here. Having said that, allow me inform you just what exactly did give good results. The text is extremely persuasive and that is possibly why I am taking an effort to comment. I do not really make it a regular habit of doing that. Next, although I can notice the leaps in reason you make, I am not sure of exactly how you seem to connect the details which produce the final result. For now I will, no doubt yield to your position but hope in the near future you link your dots better.
