Over-sharing on social media isn't a good idea for anyone, but if you're a criminal and the cops are watching — and they definitely are — it can land you in jail. That's what a couple of Florida men found out this week when a Facebook Live video was used to help charge them with burglary.

According to NBC Miami, Raderius Glenn Collins, 18, posted a video to Facebook Live showing himself, 27-year-old Marcus Terrell Parker, and another unidentified man basically snitching on themselves as they held up big stacks of cash for the camera and bragged that they "got a safe."

 
Collins and Parker were arrested and charged with a robbery that netted $510,000 worth of jewelry from two suburban Miami homes.  Most of the jewelry was recovered at a store in a Miami mall, where it was sold for cash, according to News 7 Miami. The amount of cash, though, wasn't even close to what it should have been, an official told the station.

Police are still searching for the third man, who has not been identified. Meanwhile, Collins seems a little bit confused about how he ended up getting named as a suspect in the robberies, but he seems to be on the right track.

He's definitely not the first to get arrested after allegedly bragging about a crime on Facebook. These guys were arrested after bragging about a gang-related murder in New York, and this teenager was arrested after posting about "drivin' drunk" on Facebook in 2013.
