​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.

​Just over a year ago, the inaugural post of Mugshots Friday introduced the world to a Miami man, arrested for soliciting a prostitute, who appeared to be missing half of the top of his head. He was regularly arrested for petty crimes, and one officer wrote "Half a Head" under distinguishing characteristics in a police report.

We learned a bit about the man known in his neighborhood as "Halfy". When he's arrested for bizarre crimes such as stealing songbirds from a woman's porch or continually harassing a store-keeper, the charges are invariably dropped, likely due to his condition. We tried to locate him tell his own story, and spoke to members of his family, but never found him.

Apparently, all we had to do is hang around a river where he likes to smoke weed.

​Your regular Mugshots Friday programming is cancelled because we simply cannot continue when one of the mugshots is of a guy covered in mysterious powder. It wouldn't be fair to the other mugshots.

Travis Williams (click photo to enlarge) was arrested on Wednesday for disorderly conduct/breach of the peace, which does not address the question as to why he's covered in a white powder. (If the charge was trafficking exactly one skin-load of cocaine, that'd be another matter.) We got the arrest affidavit (below) from the Miami Police Department and it provided tantalizingly... little.
