10 times a serious crime was captured on Facebook

On Easter Sunday, a man named Steve Stephens allegedly published to Facebook a video of what appears to be him walking up to an innocent man in Cleveland, then shooting and killing him. Stephens is on the run, and a massive manhunt was under way Monday morning. This is not the first incident in which Facebook was a platform for a suspect or criminal to show footage of something so gruesome.

    Police said it wasn't difficult to track down three men suspected of raping a woman in Stockholm, Sweden because they broadcasted via Facebook Live, in a group. Several of those who saw it reported it to police, and they were able to find the apartment where it happened (Getty Images).Photo by: Vittorio Zunino Celotto
