I’m always one to judge someone based on their appearance, but on the real if you’ve got the personality to overcome the unibrow you’ve got crawling across your face then you’re fine by me. So when I saw the original video of the green-haired eyewitness who has the face of a camel that got thrown down a garbage disposal, I was all like “ew”,” but then I was like “eh okay.” And now I’m like “oh shit I spoke too soon because he’s actually been arrested gee whiz good going there dude.”

As the title says, it’s for the most pathetic crime possible — stealing from a Walmart. Like come on, the shit in there is all crappy plastic from China. If you’re going to risk going to jail at least hit up a Target or a Sears or something. Sears is even shittier than Walmart, but at least everything in there is overpriced to the point where you don’t feel like white trash walking outta there with full shopping bags. And Target, well, same stuff as Walmart, but for suburban housewives who want to give the vibe that they’re “better” than Walmart, as if people actually give a shit where they are or aren’t shopping.

According to MS News Now:

The man, who just yesterday became the Internet’s newest viral star, is now in police custody.

He went to the Ridgeland Police Department Thursday afternoon to answer to a contempt of court charge for more than $1,600 worth of fines.

He was then picked up by Jackson Police for two outstanding misdemeanor theft warrants. He’s accused of stealing merchandise from Swell-O-Phonic [a skateboarding store] in Fondren and Walmart.

We spoke with a manager at Swell-O-Phonic who says that Barnes stole a Van’s bucket hat just over a month ago. She also says he has been known for shoplifting in the area.

Barnes is scheduled for a court date in two weeks.
