A young teenager had been accused of posting ads on Craigslist and trying to sell stolen TV sets. A deputy at the Alachua County had scanned the Craigslist and found out about the ad and he noticed that the 3 television sets that are being posted for sale matches those TV sets that were stolen from apartments early of this year.
The deputy posted as the buyer of the television sets and during the meetup, he arrested the teenager and filed cases against him. The Deputy is Michael Rodenwoldt. He used marked money to buy the TV sets for the amount of $1,200. After receiving the money, Charles Campbell Delony, an 18 year old, was arrested for criminal mischief, burglary and other charges. Delony actually told the police about the stolen TV sets and where he stole them from. He also said that he was selling them so he could get easy money.
Really no surprise here. I am starting to see a lot more news like this about Craigslist occuring. Seems the site has almost become too popular. If that is even possible.
