Rape suspect arrested following Facebook find

I hope there's some more evidence. Usually when the victim finds the rapist while browsing photos or watching tv, false memories are created. :p

So if it's the right suspect, they might not convict him on just this.

I hope police have more evidence than just the woman's claim?. Police better do a better job before detaining the man,

Can you believe this.. what a funny Law it is.. I mean a women just accused some one of a rap via facebook and the police went on to arrest the (so called suspect!)..

Really Sweden, can you be more mature.. or MEN is always a suspect!

Umm, i'm pretty sure she would know that her raper was a "MEN".

A woman was raped, and you're concerned about how she identified her raper?

And your giving a lecture on maturity?

Priceless.

On being accused of rape in Sweden by fACEbOOK .. if you are innocent, take the nearest flight to London and seek asylum in Ecuador. The weather is better and the chicks are hotter!

Is there any right to resist custody if the blame is only based on Facebook picture?

I mean right for MEN?

Curious. I expect the story is very incomplete. Identified on Facebook? Police should surf more Facebook pages, obviously this valuable crime solving tool has previously been overlooked.

NO, this is Sweden where apparently only "your government" can determine whether you have been raped or not.

This is a small town, and the victim is the best one to identify the face of her attacker. He might in fact have a distinctive appearance. If he is innocent, he will not end up in jail. She may also be able to identify his bicycle and clothing, which the police can now look for in his apartment. It is of no use for police to use facebook unless they already have one or more photos of the attacker. Until his arrest, the only photo that existed of him was etched inI the mind of the victim, so only she could make effective use of FB to find him. I agree with post 4.

Come on.. do you really need to rape someone in Sweden ?.. just ask for it.. :D

The author of this article should have used 'commiting', not 'consummating'. Rape is a crime which is committed. Consummation suggests something quite different.

II think Swedish women should be more careful. As far I can see they are not afraid to walk back home in the night alone. There is all kind of people out there so a little more precautions are not bad idea. Also I don't get this way of thinking: Going out getting drunk making yourself almost helpless and than going home by the public transport or walking or by bike late night. It is far too risky for a woman than for a man doing it. Getting a taxi to bring you right back at home is the solution. Find a sober friend to help you if you feel dizzy or to give you a ride. There should be a public campaign teaching the girls ant talking about the problem instead covering up this issue and blaming or relaying only on the Police to protect everyone.

About the rape now. Those who do it are psycho not just some ordinary criminals. They should be sent to special Sanitariums for such people with no access to the outside for some period. Simple sending them in prison does not work. If they don't show improvement after participating in special programs and evaluations by doctors and physiologists they should be chemically castrated or in more severe cases sterilized. After getting treated they should be let go home but the Police should constantly monitor them. Here I think a lot of voices will rise up about the cruelty and human rights. Well I don't know which is more important- to absolutely save the human rights of one psychopath or protecting the life and the human rights of dozen woman and their families. The system now is trying to make the Wolfs friends with the Lambs but it is against the common sense and the nature of things as well. And if what I suggest is done properly and from the right specialists would even help those people and keep them from the streets and from doing even worst crimes. What do you believe about it?
