A White Plains man used a remote access program on his laptop to monitor the suspect who stole it, resulting in his arrest last week. The laptop was stolen on September 4th after Jose Caceres left it on top of his car while he carried stuff into his home. Using the remote tracking, Caceres was able to monitor the suspect's internet use, which he says primarily consisted of studying the remarkable migratory patterns of the Black-tailed Godwit. Kidding—it was porn, all porn. When the suspect, 34-year-old Gabriel Mejia of White Plains, typed in his home address to replenish his porn supply, Caceres tipped off police, who arrested Mejia just hours later. The sting is reminiscent of last May's bust of two thieves in Westchester, which took place after the owner remotely used the camera in her computer to photograph the suspects.




OK, new rules for laptop thieves: WIPE THE HARD DRIVES!
Good job NYPD!
oh wait... I mean, good job victim!
Good one...

1 - if they were smart enough to do that then they wouldn't be thieves in the first place.
Fingered Remotely? Are you saying I can fingerpop my gf in San Francisco from New York?
Technology is really something
J.D.S. gets the Lifetime Achievement In Snarkiness award for the headline. And are we to believe that all the porn on that hard drive is courtesy of Mr. Mejia?
