So someone got into jail after raping someone and trying to hire a hitman on Facebook for merely $500.

More next week in "How to be an idiot"!

hmmm while not defending this scum bag, he's earned what he's got, however I've mad jokes about wanting people knocked off before, once or twice, where is the line drawn between a real threat and a joke?

I mean honestly I've told my best friend "you sing that song again and I'll murder you in your sleep", we both knew it was a joke, but do the cops?
I'm guessing he crossed the line when he planned a meeting with a supposed hitman.

I'd have thought 10-20 years in the slammer for posting a want ad on facebook for a supposed hitman might've been a bit harsh, but now knowing that he raped the girl he wanted 'whacked', i couldn't be more glad the little turd has been taken into custody.

Remember folks: Facebook can help your local police department pull off a sting operation. Oh, and it's not the place to organise illicit activity and shady dealings. Or organise murder.

I still have a hard time taking his facebook post seriously, though.

It's amazing how people are so certain that anyone in a position of authority (police/bosses/teachers/your mom/etc) does not use facebook, even though its privacy policy is remarkably poor even for a social network. They just need to know your name, dudes.

That's why I only use Facebook to rechard my Echo Bazaar actions. And even that is giving it too much credit.

Maybe you should think your dastardly plan out a little better before you make your move their buddy. Murder is illegal in this country you know. What exactly was he thinking? Did he think no one was going to notice? What exactly makes Facebook a hive for assassins anyways? Where was the logic. Oh never mind just Facepalm and forget.

I'd say this guy was stupid, but that would take away from the horrifying acts he'd already engaged in.
That doesn't change the fact that he is stupid. Raping someone isn't something that can be attributed to stupidity, it's something that can be attributed to a moral flaw. Trying to hire someone to kill your rape victim over facebook can be attributed to stupidity.
Having a rape victim is certainly malice though. Guess we're "lucky" *shudders* that the media didn't see Bookface and blame it on "THOSE EVIL SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES!".

On top of the recent news from someone getting caught planning to shoot up his school and also caught with kiddie porn thanks to 4Chan, on top of WikiLeaks, we have THIS.


OI! If you're planning something morally iffy, DON'T POST IT ON THE INTERNET!!

Oh it certainly is........

I am surprised this guys sentence is so light. I mean shouldn't they add time for being a dumbass?

I can only hope that something happens that stops this person from breeding ever.

Some times the parents or society are to blame. This time it could be both and the fact that this guy was hit with the stupid branch.
hahahaha I sniggered (and I was about to mention the breeding, or not to, part lol)

The way the american legal system works starts with "Can you afford a lawyer?" If the answer is no, then the state provides one for you. However, these lawyers (public defenders) are NOT interested in your defense first. They are interested in completing the trial in the most expedient means possible. As a result, if you are ever seated with a public defender, they will give you a run down of your options should the case go to trial. They will tell you that is a case goes to trial, you will face X to XX number of years in prison if convicted. However, admitting guilt will almost always assure significantly less prison time.

It sounds like Corey Adams in the article sat down with a Public Defender, and in light of the evidence the police had on him, was advised to just plead guilty so he wouldn't spend more than a set number of years in prison.

Remember, state appointed lawyers are not the same as the ones that you pay for out of pocket. One attempts to set up a case in your protection. The other tries to get the case over with, and that may or may not coincide with keeping you out of the clink.

I seriously had to sit and think about what I wanted to post, cause every time I tried to type, my mind just went GAH! and I couldnt think of anyhting.

So lets bypass the obvious I raped a girl so I want her dead logic and what was he thinking.
A) why would you go to facebook to hire a hitman? Why not just go to Craigslist or something? I mean, if you're hiring someone on Facebook as your contract killer, they're probably not very good.

B) What defense does he raelly have outside of insanity? And I somehow think thats not gettin him out of this. They should have just tried him. Cause you know when (if) he gets out, he'll either try to kill her himself, or do the same thing, again. But this time it will be about vengeance.

There's a definite difference between Paul Chambers [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twitter_Joke_Trial] and some tool that asks someone to kill the girl he's just raped. And then asks again while the police are near.
Is that really true that Stephen Fry offered to pay for his legal charges?
