Internet, meet the Brad Pitt of convicted felons.
Jeremy Meeks, 30, who served two years in prison after a 2002 felony conviction, was arrested on Tuesday on five weapons charges and one gang charge in Stockton, California, according to police. The Stockton Police Department posted his mugshot on its Facebook page on Wednesday alongside those of three of his companions, but Meeks' mugshot got Liked. And Liked. And Liked again.
Meeks' image now has nearly 59,000 Likes and almost 18,000 comments on the Stockton Police Department's Facebook page. In comparison, the other three mugshots have less than 2,000 Likes collectively.
You can see for yourself why.

The comments on the image include, "Omg come to mama," and "He can kidnap me anyday... Hold me against my will lol." Of course, #FelonCrushFriday quickly began trending on Twitter, showcasing a plethora of memes of Meeks, including some real Photoshop gems.
Apparently, women really do love bad boys.
