“A radio host in Memphis, Tennessee, was placed in handcuffs on Tuesday after he ‘liked’ a Facebook post made by a woman who had previously filed a restraining order against him. The incident occurred when a woman named Towanna Murphy posted a video on Facebook. Talk radio host Thaddeus Matthews, who used to work with Murphy and reportedly had a sexual relationship with her, ‘liked’ the update, leading her to snap screenshots of the post and head to the police. According to local Fox affiliate WHBQ in Memphis, 56-year-old Matthews claims he turned himself in to authorities, but either way police arrested him and charged him with violating a protection order.”
