The internet is a very nice tool for investigations.

Discovering and exposing obscene pictures of minors seems to get the most publicity, and it's certainly good that police dedicate time to that, but the internet can be used for simple investigative purposes.

Checking a suspect's social media accounts can do wonders in certain cases, and sometimes even helps find someone in hiding.
