Man Facing 142 Charges Posted Incriminating Photos on Instagram
A Florida man suspected of organizing several so-called "dinner time" burglaries in the Boynton Beach area was arrested after posting a series of incriminating photos on Instagram.
The photos, posted at duce22ceritfied (sic), show Depree Johnson and others posing with guns, cash, and drugs.
The months-long investigation into the break-ins at local senior communities led authorities to Johnson’s Lake Worth home, where they found "numerous pieces of jewelry ... (including) watches, charms, necklaces and loose diamonds, as well as two stolen firearms."
All told, the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office recovered some $250,000 worth of loot.
Johnson was subsequently booked on 142 charges, including possession of weapons/ammunition by a convicted felon.
