We're in the final stretch of our summer campaign. Our goal is to raise $10,000 by August 9 to support the journalism our community relies on. Reader support is helping shape the future of local news.
Every Friday, Riptide brings you the most eye-catching mugshots taken in Miami-Dade County in the week previous. Yes, there is some mockery of bad neck tattoos, but also adulation directed at perps who just plain-out look more badass than we ever will . This is the italicized intro to that series.

WTF? Is that a cape?
Arrested: 2/25

Now that’s how you do your fucking hair. To quote Sheen, the perfection of this guy’s braids makes the Bone Thugs look like droopy-eyed armless children.

And here’s a bootleg, underfed version of the previous guy.
Arrested: 2/26

There’s nothing particularly special about this guy. We just like seeing what dudes are doing with their faces these days.
Arrested: 02/26

We have no idea what in God’s name happened here. He’s got a borderline Prince Valiant haircut and his face is speckled with blue goop. How the hell are we supposed to write a caption for that?
Arrested: 2/27
Charged with: Disorderly intoxication, aggravated battery on a law enforcement official
She doesn’t look violent. She looks like she’s going to give us some warm oatmeal raisin cookies and tell us stories about what we were like as an infant.
Arrested: 3/2
Charged with: Carrying a concealed firearm, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute
Let’s call this Hair Week. Hopefully next week will be Terrifying Nose Bridge Tattoo Week.
