Spyder78 Posted October 9, 2014 Posted October 9, 2014 COLUMBUS (Steve Levine) – Monica Hargrove, 34, accused of robbing a friend at gunpoint, is now locked up behind bars, after complaining to authorities about her mug shot that was posted on the Columbus Division Of Police Facebook page. “I think Ms. Hargrove’s case is the first time a suspect has called about a mug shot,” said Denise Alex, with the Columbus Police.Cops posted a mug shot of Hargrove from a previous arrest when a warrant was issued last month in connection with a robbery in East Columbus.Hargrove is accused of taking a friend to a pharmacy and then robbing the woman at gunpoint. “The woman went to pick up a prescription, Ms. Hargrove pulled a gun on her, and tossed her friend out of the car,” said Alex.After C.P.D. posted Hargrove’s photo on its Facebook page, she called police and demanded her mug shot be removed from the internet. “She said I want my photo off the CPD Facebook,” said Alex.Hargrove made arrangements to come to CPD and speak with Detectives about removing her unflattering Kodak moment; instead she was arrested and booked on robbery charges.“I am sure she was surprised, because she thought she was meeting with detectives, she should’ve known she had a warrant for her arrest,” said Alex.Hargrove was allowed to take a new mug shot, however the “unflattering” photo she demanded be pulled from cyberspace is still roaming free on the information superhighway.Hargrove was recently indicted by a County Grand Jury on kidnapping and robbery charges, and is now locked up in the Franklin County Jail. http://abc6onyourside.com/news/features/top-stories/stories/suspect-meets-police-demand-they-take-mugshot-off-facebook-gets-arrested-35814.shtml#.VDbizfldX_G Cops are probably wishing every criminal would go this route and make their jobs easier xD Quote
