This is the picture that led the FBI to a catch prolific hacker allegedly responsible for releasing the personal information of scores of police officers throughout the United States.
Higinio O. Ochoa III has been charged with illegally hacking into at least four U.S. law enforcement websites - feats he allegedly boasted about across social networking sites.
And it was this image - snapped in Australia - of his scantily-clad girlfriend holding a message taunting U.S. authorities that caught the 30-year-old computer programmer from Galveston, Texas.
GPS co-ordinates embedded in the photo - as are found in all pictures taken by a smartphone - showed authorities the exact street and house in Wantirna South, Melbourne where it was taken.



Nice bod on the girlfriend, but truly a butter face.

"Butter face". I'd expect nothing less from you.

You disagree, or do you have a better pic? This is textbook butter face, pal.

You can toggle them off. Sometimes they're horribly inaccurate. I'm impressed that they were accurate enough to pinpoint a house if the picture was taken indoors...usually GPS-capable phones don't get a fix on your location when you're inside.

It must have been an iPhone.
