Burglary suspect identified by tattoo of Florida ... ON HIS FACE

If one plans to undertake a life of crime, it's best not to make a spectacle of oneself.

It's probably also best not to get the state of Florida tattooed on one's face.

There are several reasons for this. A) It might make one an easy target. B) The state of Florida is ... um ... funny looking.

But Sean "Florida Face" Roberts clearly wasn't thinking of that sage advice when he got inked up and allegedly busted into a trailer a few weeks ago outside of Tampa, Tampa Bay Online reports.

Police say Roberts, who also goes by the aliases "Crazy Cracker" and "Pretty" (you can't MAKE this stuff up!), broke into the trailer with a female friend, forced the occupants into a bathroom and took off with some items (which did not, one can only assume, include a gift certificate for laser tattoo removal).

That's a pity, because it didn't take long for the cops to find him once the victims said the culprit was the guy with the Sunshine State on his head.

Yeah.

I imagine the whole arrest scene went something like this:

Police: Hey there, Florida Face. We're here to take you to the big house, because you've been a bad, bad boy.

Roberts: It wasn't me.

Police: MWAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! You're hilarious. Cuff him.

Roberts, his buddy and his tattoo are now facing charges of armed home invasion and enjoying a luxurious stay in the clink.

Make that Good Guys: 1; Proponents of Epidermal Cartography: 0.

Holy cow.....we have a winner! So that's who has been sucking up all the oxygen that the rest of us need to survive. The fact that he had florida tattoed on his face says a lot about this up standing gentleman. He is definitely going places.

This gives me an idea. All felons should be given an easily recognized tattoo on their face as part of their punishment. a brief recapitulation of their rap sheet might do nicely! Bwahahahahahaha!!!
