So a few weeks or so ago my roomates parents, who live in Philly got robbed. They stole a laptop, a desktop, two TV's, different sets of car-keys, jewelry, and pretty much everything of value in the house.
His parents are basically computer illiterate, so to make troubleshooting easier, my roomate installed a remote desktop program on their computer so that he could access their computer anytime he wanted to fix different problems.
A day or two after the robbery my roomate was able to connect to the remote desktop on the stolen computer, and was able to get all the network information (IP, ISP, etc...). He turned this information over to the detectives who were working on the case, and they went to the ISP, who cooperated with them, and gave them a location.
update:
LOL. This is good. My roomate was also able to get the guys email address username from his browser history, and he did a google search for the username. Guess what came up? If you guessed his myspace page, then you are correct.
On his myspace page was the guys name, school, and a TON of pictures. There were pictures of him with his family, and his bunch of thug friends. Most of the pictures with his thug friends were of them posing with various automatic weapons, shotguns, etc...
Then there were also links to his friends myspace pages, which also had names and locations.
There have been a bunch of robberies in the area, and police suspect that they are all related, and have reason to believe that these other kids are involved, and there will likely be more arrests coming from the myspace information.
LOL... fvcking dumbass thugs. The sad part is that most of them are still in highschool, and probably will only get a slap on the wrist. Either way, they are about to get owned pretty badly.
I will post the myspace pages once more arrests are made (dont want them to go and delete their pages or anything).
update 2:
Here are a few out of hundreds of pictures gathered from some myspace accounts. These thugs are in a gang of some sort called T$, which is the T symbol you see a few of them making with their arms. These fvcking morons give black people and muslims a bad name. As you can see it appears one of the little fvckers has fathered a child, and theres even a pic of what would appear to be his "babys momma"

I can see no further use to bumping a 1 1/2 year old thread for an update that was already in the thread; especially since the pictures are gone. (OP, if you want it unlocked, PM the mod account.) -Anandtech Moderator DrPizzaHey. Sorry for no update.
They used the IP to get a warrant on one location. Pretty much everything was recovered except for the TV and a digital camera. They could only arrest two of the kids (who were living at the location). Sadly, I think they only got juvie. Oh well. At least his parents got most of their stuff back.
