iPod Identifies Body Of Blogger
This post was published 2 years 6 months 11 days ago which may make its actuality or expire date not be valid anymore. This site is not responsible for any misunderstanding.Tragically TV Squad blogger Adam Finley passed away this weekend after being hit by a bus while he was riding his bike.
To identify his body investigators used the serial number of an iPod with the cooperation of Apple.
Investigators with the Hennepin (Minn.) County medical examiner’s office say they tried for nearly two days to identify the man, who had only the iPod and some keys in his possession when the accident happened Thursday.
With help from Apple employees, they used the digital music player’s serial number to trace the device to Adam Ray Finley, 30, a former Des Moines man who moved to the Twin Cities five years ago. [...] fingerprints would not have helped investigators because his son had “never been in trouble in his life.”
We join the blogging community in mourning his loss.
Sorry to hear that, I like TV Squad. Sad, indeed.
couldn’t they have turned the ipod on and looked at the ‘About’ section Mine says ‘Jonathan ******’s iPod’
Jon: The name of one’s iPod is customizable. Mine, for instance, is Nanoo Nano (I have an iPod Nano).
Respectfully (@ jon) what part off hit by a bus were you confused with?
im sure the ipod was indeed destroyed…
Very sad loss, RIP
