This Wouldn't Have Happened Without Them
|
Chappy Grey & BullRacksin
Baxter County Sheriff's Dept. & Mountain Home Police Dept.
|
What you're looking at is the result of months of work, real coordination with law enforcement, and two scambaiters who refused to let this one go. Chappy Grey and Bullracksin worked this case alongside the Baxter County Sheriff's Department, the Mountain Home Police Department, and U.S. Homeland Security to make sure that room — and that arrest — actually happened. An elderly victim kept every dollar. Two scammers pleaded guilty. This is what the mission looks like when it works.
