Jeremy Meeks is a convicted felon. He’s already spent nine years in jail for grand theft, was recently arrested in California on felony weapons charges and now faces five weapons charges and one gang charge. So yes, he’s a felon, but he’s also a qualified babe and the man behind that hot mug shot that went viral last week.
Beyond all those felonies, you’d think that Jeremy Meeks’ girlfriend would be pretty proud to be with a man who’s mug shot launched over 86,000 Facebook likes and 11,000 shares, but apparently, being the hot criminal’s wife isn’t easy and she’s not all that pleased about all the attention her 30-year-old boyfriend is getting.
‘She’s furious,’ Meeks’ friend Simone Johnson told CBS. ‘Her man is in there and people are taking it as a joke, thinking it’s funny talking about his looks, saying all kinds of crazy things.’
For his part, Meeks, who is married with two young sons, is not exactly ecstatic about all the attention that he’s getting either, saying that he’s ‘not some kingpin’, like someone from *Orange Is The New Black. *‘I appreciate (the attention), but I just want them to know that this really is not me,’ he told reporters.
Meanwhile, it doesn’t look like the hype around the mug shot is dying down any time soon because there’s now a cock shot, allegedly of Meeks, also doing the rounds on the internet. We’re definitely not certain it’s actually him – although whoever it is seems to share Meeks’ like of tattoos – but we’re pretty certain that his wife isn’t going to be all that happy with this latest development.
If you’re feeling brave, you can have a look at the VERY NSFW picture here. It’ll take your breath away.
