A Connecticut man is due in court on charges that he targeted his neighbor in an online advertisement that invited strangers to a rowdy orgy with a soccer mom.
Forty-two-year-old Philip James Conran is scheduled to appear Thursday in Hartford Superior Court. The West Hartford man is charged with reckless endangerment, harassment and other offenses.
Police say Conran and the neighbor had been feuding. They say he posted a Craigslist ad on April 5 pretending to be the neighbor. The ad said the woman wanted to fulfill her fantasy of group sex and listed her address, prompting several strangers to visit or drive by.
One man was arrested after allegedly going to the wrong address and groping a teenage girl there.

They say revenge is sweet.....not so much here.


This is the second or third case I've read of where someone has used Craigslist to plot some type of revenge on a neighbor. Seems odd that someone would be so dumb as to do this with CL wanting so much info from their advertisers.
