A Facebook selfie has helped the Police in solving a murder case of a Canadian girl by name Brittney Gargol ,18, after it was uploaded by her friend.
Brittney Gargol, 18, was found dead near a landfill in March 2015 and an autopsy later revealed that she died of strangulation.
On Monday, Gargol's friend Cheyenne Rose Antoine, 21, pleaded guilty to manslaughter in Saskatoon Provincial Court in connection with the death. The Police immediately arrested Antoine after they found a Facebook selfie that showed her wearing the belt used to strangle her friend.
The described wide blue woven belt with a large buckle was found on a roadside next to Gargol’s body, and Antoine was seen wearing the same belt in a photo posted to her Facebook account just hours before the killing, according to the Saskatoon Star Phoenix.
Antoine posted on her friend's Facebook timeline (Brittney Gargol) “Where are you? Haven’t heard from you. Hope you made it home safe,” after Killing her.
Investigators got suspicious of her when she initially told them about spending time with the victim the night she died, but left her friend to visit her uncle. It was later revealed that her statement was false. Antoine later told investigators that she and Gargol partied with two men, who allegedly strangled the victim and put a gun to her head to help them. The second statement
was also proved false.
Investigators arrested Antoine last year after finding the selfie showing her wearing the same belt used to kill her friend as the Police had struggled to solve the case, but were able to put together enough evidence using the Facebook
photo, uploaded six hours before the murder.
“It’s quite remarkable how the police developed this information,” prosecutor Robin Ritter said Monday in court, adding that Antoine poses a threat to public safety. She “has issues … and because of those issues, she is dangerous,” the CBC reported.
At the moment this report was filled in, Antoine Cheyenne Rose is sentenced to Seven years Jail term.
