This is the clusterf*ck that ensued in the picture comments.
McCombs’ first reply to the posting of the wanted “rape by force” mugshot.
Instead of shutting him down, whoever runs the sheriff’s office Facebook page jumps right into the bait. McCombs replies that he’s getting a lawyer and asks if he can turn himself in another “nicer” county.
Sheriff keeps talking.
Sheriff offers him to talk via email but McCombs prefers to talk in public on Facebook.
The dumb kid just can’t stop talking, now asking the police for legal advice.
This is like watching a train crash in slow motion.
McCombs accuses them of defamation of character for posting the mugshot.
Some dude piles on. People are so nice.
The police finally realises that it’s dumb to put up this public show.
McCombs finally posts the obligatory “I didn’t do it” phrase. Just after this, the whole mugshot and conversation was deleted by the sheriff’s office.
Part of Jefferson County Sheriff Office’s Facebook Creep of the Week page, now without McComb’s mug shut or conversation.

Monday, February 6, 2012 at 12:16 PMI would have thought calling a suspect “creep of the week” would potentially contaminate juries and might offer him an appeal if he is convicted, I am surprised that the Sheriifs office thinks this kind of approach is a good idea. But then perhaps they only do this to people who they are reasonably sure will not hire good defense lawyers? There is this little things called a presumption of innocence … oh that was before the WoT and facebook, silly me :-)
