An IT consultant from the UK ended up in a prison cell after posting a holiday photo on LinkedIn. The picture showed him holding a gun while he was on vacation in Florida, more than 4,000 miles away from home. Jon Richelieu-Booth lives in Yorkshire and was shocked when police officers came to his door after he shared the picture earlier this year.
According to Unilad, the first visit from the officer was just a warning about what he had been posting online and how it could affect other people. But that wasn’t the end of it. Police came back later and arrested him.He spent the entire night in a prison cell while being questioned about the picture he took in the US and another separate image he had posted.
