This is Rodney Bradford. A few days ago, Facebook saved his 19-yo life. Facebook and his status plea demanding the immediate consumption of the very basic food groups every human being needs to properly function in the morning: Pancakes.
Rodney was arrested on October 18 as a suspect in two crimes. He declared himself innocent and Robert Reuland—his defense lawyer—found the key to free him: “Where’s my pancakes?”
That seemingly inconsequential Facebook status update proved crucial when the Californian company confirmed that someone wrote it from his father’s Harlem apartment computer, using Rodney’s user and password at around the time of the alleged crime: Saturday October 17, 11:49am.
Of course, you can argue that anyone with Rodney’s password could have written the status update, while the 19-yo went on to commit two crimes, but his defense lawyer and the district attorney disagree:
This implies a level of criminal genius that you would not expect from a young boy like this; he is not Dr. Evil.
A spokesman for Brooklyn’s District Attorney said the Facebook update served as the confirmation of the other alibis, namely Rodney’s father and stepmother, who declared he was at their Harlem home at the time.
The most interesting thing in this case, however, is that this seems to be the first time in which social networking has been used to save the ass of someone, rather than nailing a really stupid thief. Some people believe that Facebook and other sites will become part of criminal cases across the country, as they get deeper under society’s skin. Personally, I can’t wait till we are all monitored by automagical retinal scans, and naked bald people in funky swimming pools decide who is a criminal and who is not. Can’t wait, I tell you.

Karma’s a bunch of hooey, but in cases like this I can understand the appeal: Richard Heene, the arrogant, self-centered con artist behind the “Balloon Boy” hoax, is about to be charged with a crime.
Authorities haven’t said what the charges will be, exactly, but here’s hoping whatever they are they involve this asshat paying back every cent he owes the authorities after they chased down that now infamous—and empty—Mylar balloon over Colorado. At least.
Lest you doubt this is actually going to happen, know that police searched the Heene home early Sunday morning. They also scheduled a 1 p.m. EST press conference, where they will update us all on what’s going down. “We anticipate criminal charges will be filed sometime in the near future,” said Sheriff Jim Alderden in an interview with CNN this morning.
You wanted publicity, Richard? You got it. [CNN, Gawker]

Forget the obscure brand of this Patriot media streamer. For a cheap cheap $130, this 1080p box is worth a quick look, so long as you can stomach the equally cheap UI.
The kit includes a remote, 2.5-in space for a you-provided HDD, three USB slots, Ethernet, and support for more than a few file formats. It launches, well, soon, as there’s no date and it’s currently in pre-order. [Amazon via The Gadget Site via Engadget]

Let’s hope this Android/Snapdragon pairing becomes a trend. Along with a live pic of the X3/Rachel in the wild comes a rumor that the X3 will join the Acer Liquid in the Snapdragon club.
As if the last round of specs weren’t enough to get you excited, now it’s looking like that 8 MP camera and massive touchscreen will be powered by a 1GHz Snapdragon processor. Don’t worry, even though this unit is running Android 1.6, 2.0 should be included by the time the X3 is released.
Whether or not it will be underclocked like the Liquid is still up in the air. Even if it is, it could another Android phone running Snapdragon. That’s a good thing. [P4DA via GSM Arena via Electronista via Ubergizmo]
