Google Assists in Murder

I almost missed this news...

"A Mac specialist on trial for the murder of his wife allegedly carried out a Google search for "neck snap break" and "hold" before her death, prosecutors in Durham, North Carolina, claimed last week."

Yeah, he's a real good "specialist."

I've often read that Google focuses more on negative information about anything before they do positive informaiton. So I wouldn't be surprised if they had loads of info on how to knock off his wife.

now he can read his OWn story with that KW search...

The story comes on second place for "neck snap break" in google... - as i see

Interesting...

Well, that's something I made a little software for while learning Visual Basic.

It isn't there by now. But I can upload it somewhere if you want me to.

But now most people reading the story have made the search. What happens if your spouse or friend is killed in this way, are you now guilty? lol

What about games like "shoot britney spears" and then a week later she gets shot!

Not a laughing matter as such as someone has indeed passed away, however i search for a number of things daily that could be related to many things
