KKK member admits Facebook vandalism

Melbourne - A senior member of the Ku Klux Klan has reportedly admitted vandalising several Facebook tribute pages for dead Australian teenagers, and says he does it because no one can stop him.

Fairfax newspapers reported that 28-year-old Ohio man Jarred Hensley has told a couple of Australians in an online chat room that he and his group were responsible for defacing the pages.

The most recent examples were for 17-year-old Melbourne teenager Cameron Lowe, who was bashed to death last weekend, and Chantelle Rowe, the 16-year-old Adelaide girl who was murdered with her parents.

Hensley has served two years in jail for a vicious assault on a Latino teenager.
