The social networking sites have become a rage and the games that one plays in it has been taken quite a lot of time. Some has become so obsessed with the online farming and building projects that they are losing the sense of the real world. Last January a mom from Northern Florida just murdered her infant son because of the disturbance he caused while the mom was playing FarmVille in Facebook.
Alexandra V. Tobias has been charged with murder of her 14 month old son named Dylan Lee Edmondson. The 22year old mom has been charged with second degree murder and might just face 25 to 50 years behind the pars according to the prosecutors.
On Wednesday, Tobias pleaded guilty of the charges and stated that she got angry when her son won’t stop crying while she was playing FarmVille. She shook him hard and while doing that the baby’s head might have hit the computer and soon after that he stopped breathing.
When Tobias made the 911 call she told that her dog has knocked the baby off the couch and he stopped breathing, later on she accepted her crime to an inmate and has stated her mother’s death as acted as a stressor.
This is not the first time an unwanted or criminal incident has happened due to Facebook or a social networking site. While the microblogging and the networking is in the raise so are the crimes related to it.
