Twitter has had a lot of chuckles at the expense of “Florida Man,” but today’s report from South Miami is no laughing matter. CBS Miami reports that police have taken 31-year-old Derek Medina into custody after he not only confessed to murdering his wife via Facebook post, but seeming posted a grisly photo of the murder scene as well before turning himself in.
The picture, which CBS4 and CBSMiami.com have chosen not to show, shows a woman identified in the post as Jennifer Alfonso, bent over backwards at the knees with her head in the corner of what appears to be a kitchen.
The woman’s left arm is covered in blood and blood appears on her face as well.

The post reads:
