There are probably close to 150 million Facebook friend requests sent out each and every day. It’s the simple action of going to someones Facebook profile and clicking on the “Add as Friend” button at the top. Of course it’s not illegal to friend request people on the site, however one man found out that under his circumstances it is.

The 54 Year old Pasco County, Florida resident, Harry Bruder was arrested for allegedly sending numerous friend requests to his soon to be ex-wife. This act was illegal because Bruder’s wife has a domestic violence injunction against him, which protects her from physical contact as well as apparently cyber contact. Bruder has admitted to the alleged crime against his wife whom he has been separated from for over 2 years. A Facebook wall post made by Harry Bruder on July 27th of this year stated, “Today my future x wife thinks she won but the real winner is me for I know the truth she is nothing but a lying emotionally disturbed woman who needs help to handle previous abusive relationship.”

Bruder is currently in jail in Florida on $5,000 bond.
