Mugshots Friday: Highly Appropriate T-Shirts and Tattoos

Every Friday, Riptide brings you the most eye-catching mugshots taken the previous week (or thereabouts) 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. For mugshots from Broward and Palm Beach, check out The Pulp.

Arrested: 10/7
Charged with: Carrying a concealed firearm, possession of a firearm as a convicted felon, cocaine possession, marijuana possession, displaying a firearm while committing a felony
That's an impressive list of awful decisions right there, topped off by the tattoo of a flaming pile of stacks of hundreds that advertises how much of a gentleman you are. This guy is the king of awful ideas in the 305.

Arrested: 10/8
Charged with: Child abuse
Shirt don't lie, pal. Shirt don't lie.

Arrested: 10/5
Charged with: First-degree murder
I'll give this guy credit for coming up with something original for the neck tattoo, even if he did opt to get a bizarrely blobby cityscape that has a highway running across it. I hope this is the start of a new trend of future felon ink that features some nice landscape work. Maybe we'll see some Pieter Brueghels, or a J.W. Turner or two, or at least a Claude Monet.
