So a friend of a friend had an ipad stolen… it happened in miami.

The girl used the stolen ipad to post instagram pictures online. We found the girls twitter account…

Is there an easy way to find an address or more contact info based on these facts.

I can post the instagram account, the girl looks 15 and stupid. I just dont want to ruin the chances of them finding said girl

Thanks for ideas.

(somebody mentioned icloud to track a device… how accurate is it?)

I know the icloud “find my iphone” is accurate within a few feet if I’m outdoors, about 100-200 if I’m indoors and not on wifi. The phone has enhanced GPS capability though that uses GPS plus cell tower and wifi info for really accurate triangulation.

Example from icloud… I’m in the white building. Phone is about 8 feet from the nearest window and only connected to 3g network right now.

Did your “friend” enable “find my ipad” in the icloud section of settings?

or her pedophile boyfriend stole it and gave it to her?

Instagram now also has this “photo map” feature where it tags your location everytime you upload a picture, its usually on without the user noticing it…

follow her on IG and im sure she’ll accept and follow the breadcrumbs from there?

Her online handle implies an upcoming date. I’m thinking her birthday… All her pics on instagram have her clinging to a white blackberry… I can only hope that she posts birthday festivities… That sure would be a fun party to crash… I hate thieves

Either way, it is still possession of stolen property

That is dependent on the price. If it was at a normal price that one would go for, it would be difficult to prove that the person knew or should have known the property was stolen
