Craig "Lazie" Lynch, a 28-year-old convicted burglar, has gained an Internet following as he has posted regular updates on the social networking site since his escape from Suffolk's Hollesley Bay Prison on Sept. 23, London's Daily Mail reported. Instead of quietly going on the lam, Lynch has been regaling his 1,247 followers with his regular, profane taunts at police. As a very special Christmas gift to his pursuers, Lynch posted a photo of himself dressed in tinsel, holding a turkey in one hand and making an obscene gesture with the other with the caption, "If any of you was doubtin my freedom. Here's proof. How the f--- could i get my Ahands on a bird like this in jail. ha ha." Among his previous Facebook messages, Lynch clued authorities in that he was going to take his "little princess" to a specific shopping mall to meet Santa, the Daily Mail reported. He later filed an update claiming to be roaming the mall and carrying a 4-foot plush Winnie the Pooh doll. Although it's unclear whether police were staking out the mall at the time, a police spokeswoman told the Daily Mail that officers also were working with officials from Facebook to catch Lynch. "YES YES i f----- made it to Xmas i beat their f--- system and i love it," Lynch posted on Christmas Day. Suffolk police will get another chance to apprehend their Facebook friend soon: Lynch posted his plans to attend a New Year's Eve party in Lowestoft, Suffolk.[/quote] Note: This news site (and, therefore, me) is extremely late, but I haven't seen a thread about him. This is his profile by the way: [url]http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100000329093802[/url]
badass
Is it bad if I read his comments in an Ali G voice
The guy is a legend.
According to this site, he "was serving a seven-year prison term for aggravated burglary": [url]http://www.cbsnews.com/blogs/2009/10/15/crimesider/entry5386662.shtml[/url] Seven years for burglary?!
Great, he's with his family. Nothing more Facepunch can do about this.
[QUOTE=Sickle;19300489]Great, he's with his family. Nothing more Facepunch can do about this.[/QUOTE] Order him a bunch of UPS boxes. Not that everyone wants to.
Or it's actually a friend of him posting all of this while he's on his way to Mexico :ssh:
Hardcore. I laughed when I looked on his page, and forgot to turn off the Pirate language. [I]"State o' Affairs: Marooned"[/I]
Oh god i live in lowestoft, i will look out for him around the clubs at new years
Awesome.
Only if he'd join Facepunch...

He's a criminal and deserves to rot in jail. People who are supporting this wouldn't do so if it was their house that got burgled.
He said he is going to turn himself in soon. He will not reveal the date yet.
fun fact: you can find me in his friendslist if you look hard enough, or know what I look like.
So what happened to his buddy Kane?
It just shows how stupid the general public is by egging him on and actually supporting him.
[QUOTE=Acezorz;19302218]It just shows how stupid the general public is by egging him on and actually supporting him.[/QUOTE] Nobody would really know if the media didn't create such a fuss about it.
[QUOTE=DrTaxi;19300564]Or it's actually a friend of him posting all of this while he's on his way to Mexico :ssh:[/QUOTE] He's in Britain. I don't think he's gonna go to Mexico.
[QUOTE=Acezorz;19301164]He's a criminal and deserves to rot in jail.

I don't think he's gonna go to Mexico.[/QUOTE] Mexico was used as a symbol for "criminal hiding place". Diplomatic relationships between Europe and most of South America aren't that great. And they won't issue an international arrest warrant for a simple burglar.
i lol'd when you said burgled
What is with the recent uprising of bad-asses lately
Yay some criminal scum who escaped, woo, let's all cheer for him. He nicks your TV therefore he's a hero right? Since when did we celebrate criminals who steal off normal people purely for their own gain. Pathetic.

Dude, he's being an ass to the cops. This is why we like him.
Fuk Da Plice?
[QUOTE=windwakr;19368532]Did they get him?[/QUOTE] This.
Is his FB page working for anyone? It isn't for me. Maybe they did catch him... :frown:
