8circles Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I keep getting the suggestion to friend a convicted murderer. Literally. He was found guilty of murdering his girlfriend almost 20 years ago in my hometown. Two of my 'friends' have already friended him. Its like a combination twilight zone/ law&order svu feeling. How can I make this suggestion go away? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
********* Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 There should be and 'x' next to their name. If you click that, it should make the suggestion disappear. No idea if FB will suggest them to you again in the future, however. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DawnM Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Can he have FB in prison? I had no idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he's been suggested for a few days already with lots of logging off ans on again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8circles Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) Can he have FB in prison? I had no idea. I dont think he's still in prison but I have no idea. Oh duh - can I just block him? Ill try that. Eta: I blocked him and the suggestion is gone. How bizarre. I've never had a suggestion last so long.

Remudamom Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 Merciful heavens! And I thought I had obnoxious requests. Sorry kid, you win. Don't let it bother you. Just shake it off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidwesternMom Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 That is bizarre. For some reason Facebook is always showing me ads for research studies about gout (!) or "faithful single men." As I am goutless and married, I don't know how these ads got assigned to me. I want to send Facebook a message that says "Hey, try ads for chocolate!"

Coffeetime Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 You can block him- once you do not only will you not see a suggestion for him again, but he will never be able to search for you, see your comments or friend request you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8circles Posted March 15, 2012 Author Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) I thought that people found guilty of murder got a life sentence? No, not as far as I know. Maybe it was technically a lesser charge, I don't know. Eta: I just looked it up. He confessed to r@ping her, strangling her, & setting the house on fire to hide it. Was sentenced to 27 years. No death penalty because he was 17 at the time- but he was tried as an adult. Edited March 15, 2012 by momoflaw Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
