"According to BBC Online, 'An "internet troll" who posted obscene messages on Facebook sites set up in memory of dead people has been jailed. Colm Coss, of Ardwick, Manchester, posted on a memorial page for Big Brother star Jade Goody and a tribute site to John Paul Massey, a Liverpool boy mauled to death by a dog. The 36-year-old "preyed on bereaved families" for his "own pleasure," Manchester Magistrates Court heard.'"
"Unemployed Coss was only caught when he sent residents on his street photos of himself saying he was an internet 'troll.'"

While I don't particularly agree with what he did a lot of sites set up in memory of dead people have fuck all to do with being in memory of the dead person and everything to do with the weird way a lot of people will jump on a RIP bandwagon like it's belonging to a special club.
Start a thread in any forum saying someone has died and there will be a shit load of RIP posts from people who really don't actually give a shit but aren't brave enough to either say nothing or say 'actually the corpse was an obnoxious cunt and I won't miss them'.
