A new Facebook group with members from across the globe is working to track down the Stockton serial killer.
“Some of them involve concerning things that have been said on the page, things that they witnessed in the community, people that have arised their suspicion,” said Myers.
Investigators confirm they are working with Myers and said they’ve discussed safety measures, misinformation and the possibility of the killer participating in the group's conversations.“But I have to myself push those feelings aside that I have and some of the anxiousness I have about that for the greater good because I believe in this page so much,” said Myers.
Internet expert and professor of law, Eric Goldman says social media has played a big role in recent cases like the investigations into the Jan. 6 insurrection at Washington D.C. and the Gabby Ptito murder. “There was just his nationwide hunt for both Gabby and her fiancé and the online communities were able to gather and share information that really ultimately broke the case,” said Goldman.
And that’s exactly what everyone in this group and law enforcement are hoping for -- a lead or a tip that’ll break the case.Both experts and police mentioned concerns over people throwing out possible suspect names, but Myers says there’s administrators watching the group 24/7 and making sure all of the rules are being followed.
