First Documented Facebook Related Assault in T&T

December 29, 2009 by Taran Rampersad

The most visited site from Trinidad and Tobago remains Facebook - and now the first documented Facebook related assault has come:

...Court prosecutor Sgt Dianne Boxhill told the magistrate the alleged incident occurred after “a message” was posted on Internet social network, Facebook. According to the prosecutor, the accused confronted Arneaud on Charlotte Street, and she was allegedly stabbed about the body with a knife...

Not that Facebook has much to do with the stabbing other than a form of communication. Even so, when people can communicate more frequently the only control over what is communicated belongs to those communicating.

Don't stab your Facebook friends. Or enemies, for that matter.
