Your honor this man is accused of selling the world in exchange for a pound of marijuana.

This happened in my hometown, Rochester, NY. It has become an eternal part of local lore. You can find his mugshot everywhere.

There sure have been a lot of posts on lemmy about Rochester recently.

Did you know it's also the current residence of the author of Mickey 7 (inspiration for the movie Mickey 17 as well as, presumably, a fairly prolific lemmy poster)? That author also grew up about an hour from where I did.

(I learned this from the "about" section in one of his books so I don't feel it's inappropriate to share.)

I also have been surprised by all the posts esp. how dead the community is here. As a transplant I love the lore!

toynbee@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 211d (2 replies)

There's a Rochester community?

Three I think but this one is most active: https://lemmy.world/c/roc

that pupil dilation is bonkers tho

lime@feddit.nu · 58 pts · 212d (3 replies)

apparently he got it from being punched in the eye as a kid. it was permanent.

sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 6 pts · 212d (2 replies)

I actually have this same thing, one pupil is very often far more dilated than the other.

Did Karate as a kid to young adult, for a decade, been in a number of other kinds of tussles... I've actually taken more serious blows to the head than I can count.

... I am also a twink, so, there's that too, lol.

Oh. It's also the same eye, left eye, that's dilated.

... Huh.

lime@feddit.nu · 2 pts · 212d (1 reply)

bowie had a lot of surgery from the hit to the face, over a couple of months. if you don't remember having that, then i think the eye thing is not your biggest issue

sp3ctr4l@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 5 pts · 212d

Oh I didn't have surgery because I am poor and didn't / don't have good healthcare.

I've been seriously concussed and/or outright knocked out cold... well, again, more times than I can remember.

You are right though: I am now a year + into my own daily at-home PT to recover from my latest, and by far most significant wallop, so I do in fact have bigger issues at present.

It's a shame, haven't been able to get out to any Karaoke spots in a while... it's been so long.

Who is this?

Frank Sinatra arrested, apparently, for “seduction and adultery” (!?... I'd have guessed mob related activities, but this also tracks, I guess).

SaveTheTuaHawk@lemmy.ca · 4 pts · 211d (1 reply)

Frank would have been at Epstein Island if he had the chance.

leftzero@lemmy.dbzer0.com · 2 pts · 211d

Yeah, the “!?” wasn't directed at Sinatra, seduction and adultery are completely in character for him, it was directed at the law making them an arrestable offence, sometimes I forget that the USA were founded by fundamentalist religious fanatics.

And here is the polar opposite - (one of) the ugliest mugshots:

Now do Butt-head.

Heh-heh.

You want me to do Butt-Head.

Heh-heh.

Mugshots are so bizarre to me. It's a modern form of the mediaeval public shaming bloc..

zikzak025@lemmy.world · 14 pts · 212d (1 reply)

On the other hand, a legal obligation to collect and publish mugshots on intake prevents people from getting disappeared.

Though that's still a concern in the US these days, when ICE is able to just kidnap people off the streets and ship them wherever with no due process.

Cybersec@piefed.social · 6 pts · 212d

Wow I never thought of that reason, thank you for the insight.

Thorry@feddit.org · 7 pts · 212d

It is actually illegal to publish the name, face or any identifying information about suspects in some countries. Just because you are suspected of a crime, doesn't mean you've lost your right to privacy. And it only helps to further public outrage and mob justice. The media can tell their stories just fine without naming or showing the people who are suspected of doing so.

mediaeval public shaming bloc..

The word you're looking for is "pillory."

I probably have been playing too much Kingdom Come: Deliverance II.

pirc_lover@feddit.uk · 1 pts · 212d

I can see the rationale in their publishing after someone has been proven guilty for certain crimes.

Like, I think being able to recognise confirmed rapist Brock Allen Turner is pretty good.

The fact that mugshots stay public long after the convicted have done their time, or even if they haven't been convicted, is abhorrent.
