In case you missed it, the Stockton Police Department inadvertently set off a social media firestorm last week by posting a mugshot of Jeremy Meeks on their Facebook page. The photo’s Facebook “likes” quickly soared soon after the shot was posted, and #JeremyMeeks was soon trending on Twitter — with all of the attention being focused on Meeks’ good looks.

Even for those who are into the “thug” look, I would think the teardrop tattoo would kill any chance of a connection.  As intrigued as I am by a social media world that would pick up on Meeks’ attractiveness and not on his accused crimes or long rap sheet, I’m more intrigued by this story, that claims that Meeks’ past mug shots weren’t always so handsome.  (Click Here)

What do you think?  Does an Afro and darker eyes and skin (apparently due to lighting — and contacts?) make Meeks appear less “hot”?  Let me know at @ColemanMichaelP, or mikelsmindseye@me.com
