Pike County, AR -  Deputies with the Pike County Sheriff's Office have three suspects in custody accused of running an illegal moonshine operation.

Deputies arrested Tami Duggan, Gare Duggan, and Clayton Plunkett.

During the arrest deputies say they found 13 firearms, a 60 gallon moonshine still and dozens of quarts of moonshine.

All three are charged with manufacture and possession of moonshine.

Gare Duggan and Clayton Plunkett also face weapons charges.

The suspects told authorities they couldn't arrest them because the moonshine was for "personal use".

If they were making it for pesonal use, I doubt the law would have ever found out about the still; sounds like they were selling it to the wrong person. Bad shine can cripple or kill ya; I can vouch for that from family history. The guns? Not illegal to own 13 guns; unless they were acquired illegally!

Yes our government is mean and nasty. Being as all the people are the government. To blame our government is to blame yourself and your poor voting ability. Do they not teach anything about our government in schools today. When you read the post of these bathroom poets you wonder if they still have school. If this ignorance is the product of home school they need to ban it.The people of the United States allow you to make 200 gallons of wine a year. For family and friends. No selling, trading, barter. The people of these United States say no to moonshine. The people of the United States are the government.
