Police Entertainment US style – vote for mugshot of the day.

I could see this one catching on here – Crims in their eyes maybe? :

PHOENIX — The Arizona sheriff known for dressing inmates in pink underwear and feeding them green baloney is inviting people to choose the most popular jail booking photos posted on his website.

Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio (ar-PY’-oh) allows online users to browse through the photos and then vote on their favorites that will be highlighted on a “Mugshot of the Day” section.

The top picks so far aren’t unexpected: They’re the most disheveled, unusual looking people among those booked into the downtown Phoenix jail.

Arpaio says he hopes the increased Web traffic will highlight the work of his employees.

He also says more crimes may be uncovered if the public can view the photos.

From the motley selection on the leader board at the time of reading I am not sure who to vote for :

I suppose you can see why Mr Luna is leading though as he models the burn cream and bandage combo that is proving so popular amongst arrested types this month.

I think they may need to change the hairstylist though if it’s going to break out into a TV show.

Do go and have a look for yourself – above the leader board are categories where you can view the various offenders – there are certainly some sights to behold.
