Man banned from internet over pranks

     

A man has been banned from using the internet after playing a prank on his neighbour that resulted in at least one naked man visiting her house.

Jason Willis, from Wisconsin in the United States, uploaded his neighbour’s details - including her picture, name and address - uploading his neighbour’s details on Craigslist.

This led to one man showing up at her doorstep wearing only a trench coat.

‘[Willis’] idea of a joke is much different to other peoples’ idea of a joke,’ the woman, known only as Dawn, told Today’s TMJ4.

‘[The male visitor] had my full name. He knew my address. And he said, “Oh, I got it off of Craigslist. You put an ad on there”.’

Willis, 31, accepted a plea deal of 30 months probation, during which time he will not be allowed to access the internet.

‘If you want to drive drunk, you’re not allowed to drive,’ Judge Allan Torhorst said.

‘To me, a public availability of the Internet – to use it the way he did – is unconscionable. Everybody knows it’s wrong. He knew it was wrong. He admitted it.’

The practical joker has 30 days to disconnect from the internet or risks going to prison.
