Whilst I'm in no way condoning the actions or crimes committed by this men and women, it raises a moral question whether this was the right thing to do? A few of these people were probably wrongly convicted of their crime, some of them are probably reformed. Why should we continue to persecute them for their crime?
Also, one could argue that keeping these people on MySpace will give them enough social interaction with people to stop them re-offending. Lack of social interaction with other women or men may have been the reason they committed the crimes in the first place.
It's such a complex moral issue. I personally think it shouldn't be MySpace's responsibility to police this kind of thing.
