“A teenager that checked into his MySpace account after breaking into a furniture store was arrested by police that tracked him down through clues left on the shop’s computer.
Police in the Washington State town of Kennewick on Friday said the 17-year-old boy broke into Bella Office Furniture then lingered for five hours browsing porn websites and hawking stolen items on his MySpace account.

This teen’s criminal tendencies may be the least of his problems, he seems to be addicted to porn and the Internet.
A burglar’s success depends to a large extent on how quickly he can accomplish his dastardly deed. Instead of making a quick getaway, this young crook lingered for hours browsing porn, and trying to hawk his stolen items on his MySpace account.
A few months in juvenile hall may cure this young man of the compulsion to steal, but to overcome his Internet and porn addiction he may need go go to rehab.
There are many teenagers who can’t go more than a few minutes without checking their Facebook or Twitter accounts. There should be rehab centers dedicated exclusively to Internet addiction.
I pity this kid, he will suffer hell in juvie without a computer or a smart phone.
