Man Doesn’t Like His Fugitive Photo, Sends “Better One” To Cops
Listen, we get it. Some days just won’t be a good photo day. But if your goal in life is to get the picture-perfect mug shot, we’d recommend you reevaluate and maybe adjust your aspirations, in general. And by “you,” we’re talking to Donald “Chip” Pugh, specifically. Pugh was charged with a
string of crimes back in 2015-2016, including breaking and entering, and domestic violence. When he failed to appear in court for a DUI charge, authorities in Ohio released his mug shot and branded him a fugitive, asking the public to come forward if they had any information on his whereabouts:
Sure, it was a pretty average image, but it’s not like mug shots are taken by world-class photographers aching to capture the aesthetics of alleged drunk drivers. But it just wasn’t good enough for Pugh. He was not okay with the world thinking that this mediocre image was a true representation of who he really was. So he texted the police a selfie, writing: “Here is a better photo, that one is terrible”.
The police in Lima, Ohio, took this, er, better photo of Pugh and promptly posted it to their Facebook page, presumably asking people for help in locating the man with the same distinct mustache who has now also grown a pair of sunglasses. Authorities eventually located and arrested him in Florida, and when asked about why he sent the police a selfie during an interview with an Ohio radio station, he said: “Man, they just did me wrong. They put a picture out that made me look like I was Thundercat … or James Brown on the run. I can’t do that.”
Yeah. We too hate it when mug shot photos make us look like famous musicians. It’s the worst.
Capitol Rioters Keep Getting Caught In The Dumbest Ways
From standouts like that “Shaman” guy who seemingly mistook the Capitol insurrection for a cosplay event, to anyone who didn’t think to hide their face from photos that would inevitably be widely circulated on social media, there’s really just no end to the stupidity of the rioters who thought they’d get away with what they did on January 6, 2021.
The irony here of course is that, if these idiots had worn masks like everyone else during the pandemic, it would’ve been harder to recognize their faces in the countless photos taken that day. Not that it would’ve mattered for a lot of them, because many (so, so many) of them left a trail of written messages all over social media, bragging about their part that day. Some of them wore clothes highly recognizable to people who knew them. Others felt the need to livestream themselves breaching the Capitol’s defense, because vloggers gonna vlog, we guess. The stories here are just too dumb to not list, so here’s a freaking list:
