TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — A Tampa International Airport detective says a social networking Web site helped her nab a suspected jewelry thief.
Detective Valerie Finley says she couldn't believe the suspect had posted links to pictures of stolen jewelry on a MySpace page. The pictures showed stolen wedding and engagement rings with the caption: "Look at That Rock."
The victim, who is the wife of light heavyweight boxing champ Antonio Tarver, had reported that the jewelry and blank checks went missing in July.
Finley traced the checks to a suspect in Las Vegas. After turning to MySpace, she gave Las Vegas police the name and address of the suspect.
