Every Friday, Riptide brings you the most eye-catching mugshots taken the previous week in Miami-Dade County. Yes, there is some mockery of bad neck tattoos, but also adulation directed at perps who just plain look more badass than we ever will. This is the italicized intro to that series.
Arrested: 8/4
Charged with: Battery
It's cool to have one expression for all emotions. You could catch this guy at his grandmother's funeral or after just having won a thousand bucks at the racetrack, and his lips would still be tracing the arc of his moustache in just this way as if to say: "Name's Frank."
Arrested: 7/29
Charged with: Trespassing after warning
Nothing to put you in a good mood like a just-got-a-haircut haircut. Never did understand the allure of getting your 'do "trimmed" or "feathered". We're men, damnit-- or in this case, a mischievous wood nymph.
Arrested: 7/29
Charged With: Multiple counts of manufacture or delivery of cocaine
Another Frank. We're not saying this guy is a coke dealer. But if you are, doesn't it make sense that you'd get away with it longer looking like a gym teacher rather than getting a dollar sign or "GOONING" tattooed on your forehead? Why doesn't anybody understand this?
Arrested: 7/28; 7/28
Charged with: Criminial mischief; robbery by sudden snatching, battery
You two be home by midnight you hear? And you're both at two strikes so no felonies tonight!
Arrested: 7/28
Charged with: Possession of marijuana, Introduction of an unlawful possession into jail
Hey bud-- threes a crowd! Beatitwhydontya!
Arrested: 7/28
Charged with: Grand theft
We don't usually go for the "hottttttt" angle (seven ts is the industry standard) but it is still the internet, and it's a slow week, so go ahead with your bad self girl.
