CrimeShadows Shines Some Light Onto Those Cleverly In Hiding

I read this one over at Red-Alerts regarding a fantastic and rather clever idea recently created by Chris Yarbrough, who happens to run Crime Shadows News.

The idea is to find a registered sex offender on any social networking website (it ain't hard) and report that account to him via his contact form found here.

Mr. Yarbrough will then report the suspecting profile to both MySpace and if the law requires, the county or state in which the individual currently resides.

I found 3 and reported them...see if you can beat me!

Here's how to begin:

1. Simply know someone listed or locate the state in which you currently reside.

Alabama
Alaska
Arizona
Arkansas
California
Colorado
Connecticut
Delaware
District Of Columbia
Florida
Georgia
Hawaii
Idaho
Illinois
Indiana
Iowa
Kansas
Kentucky
Louisiana
Maine
Maryland
Massachusetts
Michigan
Minnesota
Mississippi
Missouri
Montana
Nebraska

Nevada

New Hampshire
New Jersey
New Mexico
New York
North Carolina
North Dakota
Ohio
Oklahoma

Oregon
Pennsylvania
Rhode Island
South Carolina
South Dakota
Tennessee
Texas
Utah
Vermont
Virginia
Washington (This is where you wan't to live if your a registered sex offender)
West Virginia
Wisconsin

Wyoming

2. Examine the various offenders on the respective official websites.

3. Head on over to the more popular social networks out there:

MySpace

Facebook

Twitter

Wayn

VampireFreaks

Multiply

Friendster

Xanga (I don't think anybody actually really uses the site anymore, but what the hell!)

Hi5

Gaia (They really like this one too)

Meetup

Include others if you wish...

4. Search, search and search

**Helpful Hints:**

Google, Bing, Pipl, Peekyou, Wink, etc...

Remember kids, like a lot in life, it really isn't as hard as it may actually look. Whenever I come across a certain profile I'll usually go ahead and report it anyway....come what may I suppose.

Even so, Mr. Yarbrough once wrote something several years ago in which I have never forgotten and will always remember.

You see, there are certain people out there that will only cease to exist until they devour everything that will stand up to them.

Each day brings a different appetite...
