Stupid Criminals in Kansas
I know I shouldn’t draw attention to the stupidity of people in my own state, but I just couldn’t let this one fly by. I had to say something.
And I’m saying this guy is a dumbass.
Who gets “murder” tattooed on their neck? This dumbass. And I will step out on a limb and say that the guy who home inked the shit is a dumbass too.
Now, after being charged with murder–go figure–he, and his lawyer, think Barton County should transport him to a tattoo facility so he can have a cover-up tattoo done. They’re worried the jury might find the word prejudicial. No shit.
How about what appears to be a teardrop near his left eye? I had always thought that signified you’d killed someone? I looked it up though, and according to Urban Dictionary, it signifies that you’ve been someone’s “bitch” in prison.
Interesting. . . .maybe his home skillet tattoo artist could also see into the future and that’s why he wound up with both of those tattoos in the first place??
I say put a fucking turtleneck on and go face that jury of your peers. You know what they say, if you can’t do the time, you shouldn’t do the crime.
Makes me want to move so my tax dollars don’t have to feed and house and provide medical care for this dumbass for the rest of his life.
I’m a dumbass, and so is the guy who inked this on my neck.
GREAT BEND, Kan. (AP) — A Kansas man charged with first-degree murder is afraid the tattooed mirror-image letters spelling out the word “murder” across his neck might prejudice a jury, so he is asking for a professional tattoo artist to remove or cover it up.
Prosecutors say they aren’t opposed to Jeffrey Chapman covering his tattoo, but Barton County’s sheriff says he’s against transporting Chapman to a licensed tattoo facility — the only places tattoo artists are allowed to practice under Kansas law.
The Great Bend Tribune reports Chapman’s trial is scheduled to start Monday in the November 2011 killing of Damon Galliart, whose body was found by hunters in a roadside ditch southwest of Great Bend.
Chapman’s attorney says in a motion the tattoo would be extremely prejudicial if seen by a jury.
Fat Bottom Girl Said What 
dumbass…. I’m surprised he didn’t come up with a story that what he tattoo’d on his neck was actually RED RUM in honor of his favorite movie the shining. ~thanks for the laugh
Even more surprising is that he hasn’t asked the state to pay for it! lol
Ohhh that’s coming
Probably. That’s why they just need to tell him to suck it up and buy a turtleneck! lol
I thought he was imitating the Redrum kid, too!
Well he’s definitely not imitating a dumbass! Lol
Maybe a good citizen might provide him with a nailgun. You know, so he can try to use it to cover up that tattoo. After all, those needles look like really small 8 penny nails.
Besides, the resulting flow of crimson just might do the trick.
Ironic that his current tattoos look like jailhouse tats, but he doesn’t want a jailhouse cover-up. lol
I saw that today on our news! BUT…he WAS asking the state to pay for it. and he wanted it before his court date. Because the tattoo does not give him “just” and “proper” course of the law. you gotta be kidding me?
Oh holy shit! Some things just never cease to amaze me!
Would a Jury of his his peers be 12 NBA players?
I like tattoos. I even have a few of them myself. I just really can’t stand neck tattoos. And for some reason it seems to me, the neck tattoos seem to show up on my local arrest record page a lot. Coincidence??
I only have one word…Birdman
I had always thought that signified you’d killed someone? I looked it up though, and according to Urban Dictionary, it signifies that you’ve been someone’s “bitch” in prison.
I’ve done my own research and I’m getting varying information; so likely, it can mean multiple things.
I thought this link was interesting: http://www.ragingtattoodesigns.com/en/what-do-tattoo-tears-mean/
suggesting the tattoo originated in Australian prisons.
Yes, I knew of it meaning that you had killed someone, as I did part of my college internship in a prison. I just went with that particular one, as it seemed to fit better with the piece.
Yeah. The amusing and sad thing (at the same time) is that there is no shortage of dumbasses like this guy, spelling out their guilt either on their skin or on the T-shirts they wear. Nightmares for the attorneys assigned or hired to represent them, I’m sure.
