We know how cool it is to have your own MySpace profile with all your friends (gang members?) leaving comments and pictures, but if you're going to murder someone, perhaps you should keep your profile...you know, low profile?
Dwayne Stancill, a 19-year old from Oakland (and a san of a police detective, no less), who was identified with the help of his picture on his gang's MySpace page, did not listen to that advice. Stancill was arrested on suspicion of murder on Tuesday afternoon when he was spotted driving a stolen car in East Oakland, and was held without bail. The victim is a seventeen year old San Leandro High School football player Greg Ballard Jr., and the motive for the shooting is unknown.
Although Stancill has had a bit of a criminal history, having been caught with a concealed weapon and a stolen car before, the investigators connected him to the murder only after they've found his picture on a gang's page on MySpace.
