Facebook Selfie Conviction

Marvin Maurice Buckles and the photo that got him 15.6 year sentence



A man who was bragging about his guns and ammo on facebook by posing with them,ended up getting a 15.6 year sentence in the Federal Penitentiary. Why? Because he was a felon and was not allowed to possess a gun so he basically put his head into the lions mouth and boy did it bite him. See story here...https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2016/01/18/the-facebook-post-that-led-directly-to-jail-for-more-than-15-years/

Photos have made people rich and photos have sometimes made people poor and incarcerated.

The lesson is that sometimes, bragging can get you into big trouble.
