Arrested by Unwitting Photo GPS Coordinates
Posted by: The Photo Investigator in XYZ 6 years, 2 months ago
John McAfee was in for a surprise when he chose to boast his freedom from chasing authorities via a popular blog reporter. Not only was the photo of terrible quality and with an object blocking part of the scene, but also the unassuming reporter posted a photo which included the exact GPS location of McAfee, and within a short time he was in custody.
