Update: View the "Half a Head" police report here.

Our inaugural Mugshots Friday post has been getting quite a lot of reaction-- mostly because nobody can believe that the photo of the dude with the severely flattened head is real. It is.

The poor guy has been arrested quite alot during his 25 years for disorderly intoxication, solicitation of a prostitute, possession of weed, and burglary. But really-- can you blame him for any of that?

Here are mugshots from another arrest this year. No, we don't know how he's still alive.

They call him "Halfy." When I was in high school I used to hang out with my friends in the neighborhood where he lived. One of my friends became his friend and one day I found myself giving him a ride somewhere. Can't even remember to where. I was SO afraid but I felt bad. Never did I think that he was this type of person. Then again, I was in high school and didn't think much at all.

He is very real. I've seen him panhandling, smoking a cigarette, and talking on his cell phone.

this guy actually lives in miami, I've seen him wandering the streets. He goes by "halfy" if you youtube him you will find out that he miraculously survived a car accident. He also warns kids not to do drugs or drink and drive..while he speaks smoking a blunt. When I saw him first he was wearing a hat and took it off for a split second..couldnt believe what I saw!

You guys need to follow up on this. Inquiring minds want to know wtf happened to that guy's head.

dam that looks worst then it properly is ! but i don't blame him for wanting to smoke weed maybe it helps him with headaches or anxiety caused by the brain trauma and injury ? and maybe he wants to have sex at least he's not attacking unwilling women ? and maybe he cant hold a job i don't know it sucks to know maybe the guy just went through some shit or maybe he's just brain damaged either way this guy needs help i hope he's still alive
