I sent someone a message, but it wasn't like a threat or anything...but she somehow thinks I'm stalking her.  I think she prolly reported it. Since then, I have deactivated my account and also deleted the email address I used for it. Is there a way for the police or facebook police to "track someone down" from which computer it was and stuff? Or do they not bother...if the account is gone, they can't do anything right?
