US: Rapper’s Instagram photos lead to largest gun bust in New York City history

Matthew Best is a barely known Brooklyn rapper who goes by Neno Best. He had the bright idea of posting photos and videos of various guns and sums of money to his Instagram account, bragging that he was selling weapons out of his Ocean Hill recording studio. He eventually had the wherewithal to remove them, but not before they came to the attention of the NYPD, which eventually uncovered a multistate gun trafficking ring. Eventually, Best’s social media non-skills led to the largest gun bust in New York City history, with 243 handguns, nine rifles and two shotguns seized. So any of you aspiring rappers out there intent on building your social media presence and trafficking in illicit firearms, you might want to pick one or the other to focus on. [Source]
