Mug shot earns convict a $30K modeling contract

[Browncoat]

Dunno if any of you followed this story, but a mug shot went viral when women on Facebook and Twitter began swooning over this guy's looks. Jeremy Meeks was arrested on multiple weapons charges in California, and when his booking photo was posted online, hilarity ensued.

Meeks is being represented by Gina Rodriguez (former porn star) of GR Media...a firm that specializes in capitalizing on this kind of stuff. She also represents Tan Mom (remember her?)

Proof positive that anyone can have their 15 minutes.

He will no doubt be the POD "sweetheart" after that. He will get passed around more than a joint at a Grateful Dead concert.

He can model the latest in the "Convict Chic" line of prison wear.

Well, I guess there are men and women with "pretty looks" in many jails around the world. Being a convict, an ex-convict, murderer, pick-pocket...doesn't mean that one cannot be handsome and sex appealing...

that idiot (the con-vict) doesn't deserve to even have his mig shot posted.

Seriously... Just more proof that we are failing as a nation.
