The story-Parents sue Facebook! 

 The parents of a murder victim are suing Facebook after a paramedic pleaded guilty to photographing their daughter's corpse and posting the image to the social networking site, according to court documents.

Caroline Wimmer, 26, was found by her parents, Ronald and Martha, after she was strangled with a hair-dryer cord in March 2009 in Staten Island, New York.

Paramedic Mark Musarella -- who responded to their corresponding emergency call -- later pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct after posting to Facebook the photographs he took, the documents said.

"All I want is my daughter's picture back," Martha Wimmer told CNN. "I want it destroyed," noting that the image is no longer posted on the site.

This is sad. Yea this is a big problem for facebook, because they are allowing any kind of pictures people post on their profiles and picture files. These parents lost their daughter to a murder and now some people took pictures of their dead daughter's body and post it on their facebook page. how cruel is that!

thats the thing with Facebook they let you post picture of your own pleasure. however, its not Facebook's fault for allowing people to do so, facebook gives you the options for allowing to show pictures to others or to just friends or private and the person or people wanted for everyone to see it. its very sad that the parents will have to live in sadness and anger as well as in shame.
