Some Facebook pressure led a Powell woman who was wanted in California to turn herself in to authorities last week.

Shanna Kay Rogers, 37, is facing a felony charge in Placerville, California, that alleges she stole more than $30,000 worth of gold and silver coins from a 91-year-old woman she cared for earlier this year.

El Dorado County authorities had been seeking Rogers’ arrest since August, when she missed a court appearance in the case.

On Wednesday, the El Dorado District Attorney’s Office highlighted Rogers’ case and active warrant on their Facebook page for its “Most Wanted Wednesday.”

“See what this fugitive stole from an elderly woman... SHARE WITH FRIENDS AND YOUR GROUPS!!!!” the District Attorney’s Office wrote in an 11 a.m. posting that included Rogers’ mugshot.

Authorities thought that Rogers — who’s from Fresno, California — was still in their area. However, El Dorado County District Attorney’s Office Investigator Dave Stevenson said almost immediately after the posting, people began contacting him to say Rogers was actually in Wyoming. Then, Rogers herself called.

“She saw her family seeing it, all her friends — and her kids were getting text messages and calls,” Stevenson said. “My understanding is her motive was to get it off of the Facebook (page). I said, ‘Well, to get it off, you’ve got to turn yourself in.’”

Around 1:30 p.m. — just two and a half hours after Stevenson posted the information on Facebook — Rogers did turn herself in at the Powell police station, where she got a ride to the Park County Detention Center.

As of Monday afternoon, Rogers remained in the Cody jail, awaiting extradition to California.

Stevenson said Rogers told him she hadn’t known about the court date and said she thought the court had her current address.

Rogers is just one of many fugitives that the El Dorado District Attorney’s Office has caught through Facebook, Stevenson said.
