Better Than a Security Camera

 

By Elton Camp

 

Most pictures of a robbery taking place

Are a fuzzy, blurry and show no face

 

It’d be possible to get better than those

If the perp would just willingly pose

 

Even post his own picture for all to see

How great for the police that would be

 

In Georgia, a man stole a cellular phone

Maybe took his picture after he had gone

 

But that phone was absolutely the most

‘Twas set on automatic, Facebook to post

 

A suspect’s picture it then did provide

So that an easier capture can be tried

 

Will there be a Constitutional examination

If he lost freedom from self-incrimination?

 

By the way, the story here is sure real

Google it if only imaginary it does feel
