Although I'm not an experienced criminal, I'm guessing the basics of leading a life of crime is not turning yourself in accidentally.

Apparently young Andrew Marcum didn't get the criminal-how-to-handbook. In fact, he didn't even get the crime-for-dummies book because he gave himself away after responding to his own wanted posting on Facebook.

The Butler County Sheriff's Office posted a wanted message to Facebook asking for information on 21-year-old Marcum, who was wanted on several charges including domestic assault and burglary.

After several comments to the posting were made, Marcum responded to one of them saying “I ain't tripping half of them don't even know me.” 

Needless to say, Marcum won't be using Facebook for quite sometime now.
