HARRISON, Ark. -- Investigators with the Boone County Sheriff's Department say the website Facebook, came in handy for an arrest of a man and woman for weapons and drug charges this week.
Vicki Bogardus and Michael Wheeler are both convicted felons. Investigators were monitoring a gun group on the popular website. Officers say Bogardus was in that group, trying to sell an assault rifle. Deputies went to her home and found 15 guns. Wheeler was at the home.
Officers also found a small amount of marijuana and Bogardus' three month old daughter.
Investigators say more and more they are using the website to solve cases.
"All we got to do is confirm what we already know, and go out and do our job. I think the common misconception about the entire thing is they don't think we are going to look at it," said investigator, Ryan Watson.
