There were also text messages about selling drugs on one of the phones, agents said.

The court filing also noted that Cockream's girlfriend said the guns were hers but admitted that Cockream had access to them and had touched them. Cockream is a felon who cannot possess a firearm. Additionally, the court filing stated that photos on the cell phones found in the home showed him handling the weapons.
