Facebook Photo of Stolen Ring Puts Couple In Jail

An anonymous reader writes "A Facebook photo of a stolen 3 carat diamond ring recently helped police solve a jewelry theft. After rings and other items valued at more than $16,000 were taken from a home on Saturday, a friend of the victim's roommate saw one of the items on the social network. 20-year-old Crystal Yamnitzky captioned the photo with the following message: 'Look what Robby gave me I love him so much,' in reference to her 21-year-old boyfriend Robert Driscoll. Yamnitzky's cousin saw the post and told some friends, who alerted police. Both Yamnitzky and Driscoll have been charged in the case."

    Nothing in the world says "I love you" quite so much as stolen merchandise. I'm so head over heels for my wife that I'm about to go out and knock over a convenience store.

      Ha! Your love is feeble, my friend. For my wife I just stole roughly $1.2 million worth of intellectual property. (downloaded her a Beatle's album via torrent)

      That's just wrong. It's because of people like you that John Lennon has point blank refused to write any new songs for the last 30 years. I hope you're proud of your achievement!

    It's not nice to assume everyone is a coke head. She might like meth too!
