Camera Phone Helps Find Killer

For all the stories of just how camera phones are just a violation of privacy, it's always good to see more positive stories about camera phones - even if they involve a murder case. Found over at picturephoning.com comes the news of a killer who has been caught thanks, in part, to camera phone photos taken by a bystander at the hotel where the killing occurred when she saw something she considered suspicious. The article is worded poorly, so it's a little unclear what made her think something suspicious was going on. However, the shots from her camera phone helped the police track down the person they say is the killer.
