Three Hayward residents (of course) are sitting in jail facing attempted murder charges after kidnapping and beating a man they met online. The 22-year-old unidentified victim, a San Jose man, had "gone to a Hayward motel to meet a woman after responding to a social networking Web site." (Which site? Who knows. Since they don't flat out mention Craigslist, which MSM loves to do, we're going to call it out as onlinebootycall.com.) According to CBS 5, "When the man arrived at the motel, police say he was beaten by the three suspects. The three then allegedly used the victim's ATM card to get cash, drove him to the Bethany Reservoir and beat him some more. " He was fond the next morning by a fisherman. The three suspects are 28-year-old Rodolfo Aguilar, 32-year-old Salim Ahmed and 20-year-old Lydia Troche. See, this is why online sex hookups just don't work in the heterosexual community. Alas. Update: the online site in question, according to the SJ Merc, was mocospace.com.



All the kids are doing it...
from the merc:
The victim had responded to an ad on the mocospace.com social networking Web site allegedly posted by a woman seeking "emotional and financial support," said Hayward police Sgt. Steve Brown.
The victim, whose identity is being withheld by police, agreed to meet the woman at the Islander Motel on Mission Boulevard around 11 p.m. Almost immediately after the victim entered the room, two men emerged from hidden locations and began to beat him. The woman also joined in the attack, police said.
WTH is "mocospace.com"? You kids these days.
With dating sites, just like with everything else, if it seems too good to be true, it is.

Hey, the ad didn't lie. Technically. At least the "financial support" part...
From a brief look at "mocospace.com," it would appear that it's a dating site for teens, rednecks, and ghetto types.
Some of the profiles on there- wow.
You mean you were able to actually read them? They seem to be in some sort of foreign language whose origin I can't identify.
Couldn't understand it either. Well... I could grab some of the meaning. But mostly what I couldn't understand is why someone would ever write in such a manner on a public profile. It's like advertising that you're a moron.
Or is that what the kids are into these days?
Some of us find morons adorable
so beaten up is not the same as beaten off?
