Social networks fulfilled their mission of connecting separated families and friends in different parts of the world, however this year also highlighted the way that some rascals are using it to publicize their misdeeds.
Among the many cases of criminals making their crimes public on the Internet is the rape of a 15-year-old girl in Chicago in March. Her assailants (who were several) made a broadcast on Facebook Live of the moment they were raping her.
More than 40 people witnessed the rape of that quinceañera without anyone doing anything to defend her or even report the crime to the authorities. Investigations led to the arrest of the first suspect: a young man even younger than her (he was 14 years old).
A month later, Facebook again became the medium of transmission for a horrendous crime when Steven Stephens, described as a portly 6-foot-244-pound man, approached an elderly man who was taking out the trash in front of his home and shot him. Cold-blooded, mercilessly ending his life.
The killer, who documented his crime on video, posted those images on his social media, causing shock to users who saw the terrifying sequence and an intense search for authorities that ended in Pennsylvania, when several agents tried to stop him at an intersection. of traffic and he committed suicide.
And Facebook Live also witnessed the appalling beating that a group of young people gave to a boy with mental disabilities. In the grotesque transmission on Facebook Live, the defenseless white young man was tortured, whom his attackers threw in a corner, with their hands tied and a tape covering his mouth, while they beat him without mercy.
In the approximately 25-minute recording, the stalkers threatened their victim with a knife, tore his clothes, and cut his hair so wildly that it made him bleed from his scalp. Also, they kicked and beat him with their hands. When describing the crime, a police spokesman from that city summed it up in one word: "sickly."
