I’ve seen this guy while I was working Security at some of the Service Stations a few years back. Finally decided to get his fix, smokes and alcohol a easy way????? No brains, no pain.
I think he looks like Herman Munsters other brother from another mother.lol
Same!
The reality of this story is one day, they’re will be a gun! Desperate times. Sad.
This guy Brown’s success on early release program? If so, slam the jail door and weld it shut!!
57 years old, such a fucking druggie. He looks like he is in his late 70’s.
Eww.. he looks really freaking hella creepy 🙁
Why is his beard grey but his hair black? Salon?
Robbery is a much more serious crime than burglary. 5-10 in the pen.
The harsh reality is us tax payers pay for all his screw ups Hospital bills
Jail stays public defenders, police calls
This maggot is fortunate he is alive. Many business owners conceal carry these days and when you pull a gun on someone, you may get shot.
Nobody notice the neck tattoo? Normally a sign of trouble…
WHAT HAPPENED TO HIS CAR?
