Intern screwup is my guess. I can't access his myspace page because it's set on private, but an ABC news article quotes the passage you're talking about, and assuming its version is literal, the passage does indeed have a pretty confusing misspelling.

"Just wanted to say there is no one else in the world like you and ill [sic!] never find another friend like you." ABC News story

Whatever kid was setting up the graphic probably didn't understand format correctly and put the sic at the end.

Please have a look at the actual screen graphic. 'I'll' is spelled correctly. No need for a 'sic.'

I went to the ABC story. The sentend containing "ill" doesn't appear in the screen graphic at all.

Stupid question
