“Pyscho” may well have gotten that and the teardrop in prison, and not by choice.

I knew the teardrop is was a prison tattoo. Why not by choice?

I read somewhere that some prison gangs use it to identify child rapists.

I double-checked. The teardrop signifying child sexual assaulter is in Australia so I guess it is not the case here.

The “psycho”, though, doesn’t look professional, and may well have been done by force.

Jerome Smith, 27, from Ohio, America has 'Genius' (spelled with a J) tattooed on his forehead. The 'Jenius' criminal was arrested for battery (Rex Features)

Looks like "G" to me: Doesn't look like it was altered after the fact.

I'd give him the benefit of the doubt on that G too.

Not much else. ;^)

The black guy had the Chinese characters for “bad,” “good” and “clown” tattooed on his face.

People in the business refer to facial tats as “career-enders”.

>>Looks like “G” to me<<

Or NOT??? This guy obviously through this through and made it a possible point of ambivalence.

If the witness can’t discern between the two, positive identification is impossible! Any lawyer worth his salt could get that ID tossed on the indeterminacy!

(this might be extreme sarcasm but, as in at least 2 stories I have read today, closer to reality than any of us like...)

Facial tattoos certainly simplify the shoot/don’t shoot decision.
