Facebook has become one of the world’s most wide and popular social networking site. It is highly accessed in the UK as well; it is seen as a way to keep in touch with friends and colleagues, but also one to meet new people from all over the world.
Recent events prove that, apart from the above, Facebook has also become a reason for crime; the victim is Emma Forrester, 34. She and her husband Wayne broke up a few days ago, and he moved out of the house they were living in with their two children.
After a few days, she changed her Facebook status from ‘Married’ to ‘Single’, which made the husband drive to their home in Croydon, South London, and violently murder the mother of his children.
He arrived at the house very early in the morning, grabbed a kitchen knife and stabbed her to death while she was sleeping. He had been drinking and he had also been consuming drugs, but that was not a circumstantial evidence.
He pleaded guilty to the murder charges and the jury sentenced him to life in prison, with the possibility of getting out after a minimum of 14 years, for good behaviour.
