Escaped Prisoner Taunts Police Through Facebook

An escaped British prisoner is taunting police over the Internet, using his Facebook page.

Craig “Lazie” Lynch, a convicted burglar, has been on the lam for the past three months, but every so often he posts a new picture and status openly mocking authorities for failing to find him. Some of his pictures show him making obscene gestures at the camera, others show him holding a wanted sign.

Lynch was serving a seven year sentence for committing burglary with a weapon when he escaped. Police are now appealing nearly 4,000 Facebook friends to help track him down.

Posting online for three months and still hasn’t been caught? Either this guy knows how to mask his IP address or the police over in the UK aren’t very bright.
