MySpace Catches a Murderer

Nice catchy title ... with all of the negative news that My Space gets is is nice to hear that some how ,some way My Space has actually helped with the arrest of a murderer. They did or should I say that the gang that posted their pictures on My Space helped catch a fellow gangster.

"MySpace has played an important role in helping Oakland police
apprehend a 19-year old man accused of shooting a San Leandro
High School football player Greg "Doody" Ballard, Jr.

Oakland police had a street name of a suspect and were able to
identify Dwayne Stancill, 19 of Oakland from a picture they
found on a gang's MySpace page. Police brought the suspect to
their headquarters where detectives say he confessed.
What was most troubling to investigators was the lack of
motive for the killing."
