Alleged Craigslist Killer tracked down via his BlackBerry

News - By: pdaBlast! Staff - April 21, 2009


If Philip Markoff, the man arrested in Boston as the Craigslist killer, turns out to be the Craigslist killer, he might blame his BlackBerry for his arrest. Apparently cops tracked him down based on his BlackBerry activities.

In the various pictures released to the media you can clearly see the suspect handling a phone that is apparently a BlackBerry.

"The Boston Herald reports: His online trail did him in, police say. Investigators said they chased down "high-tech leads" and traced "IP addresses to physical locations" to snare Markoff in his own matrix."
