Daniel Landreth

Don't let the map of Texas on top of his head fool you, Daniel Landreth's been locked up in Arizona since 2006.

Upon Landreth's release from prison Monday morning, he was picked up by deputies from the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office, who arrested Landreth on a warrant.

Princess Drennan's Mugshot Defeats the Purpose of Mugshots

How not to take a mugshot.

Believe it or not, there's a purpose to taking someone's picture when they're booked into jail.

The preceding sentence appears to have been left out of the training manual for the jail guards at the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.

Go Ahead, Twist My Ear: Mugshot of Michael Anthony Beltran, Suspected Scofflaw Driver, Looks Like a Party

By Ray Stern Wed., Mar. 6 2013 at 1:56 PM

Image: Maricopa County Sheriff's Office

Michael Anthony Beltran receives "help" from at least two unidentified officers while having his mugshot taken.

Assuming Michael Anthony Beltran doesn't have three hands, he's received a little help from authorities to make sure his mugshot came out right.

Beltran was arrested on Tuesday on suspicion of driving with a suspended or revoked license, a misdemeanor, and booked into the Maricopa County Jail, records show.

We surmise he didn't want to have his picture taken.

And, it looks like cops figured that an ear twist, knuckles under the chin, and possibly a tug of hair at the back of his head was required for the photo shoot.

MCSO

Edward Sauceda

Edward Sauceda is probably the only person on earth with the Arizona Cardinals logo tattooed on his face, as we could only find one other photo of a Cardinals face tattoo on Google images -- Sauceda's mugshot from 2009.

Sauceda was actually arrested the week before the Cardinals lost to the Pittsburgh Steelers in Super Bowl XLIII in 2009, but is now accused of aggravated DUI during the preseason.

Moses Ulloa, Glendale's Own, Arrested Yet Again

By Matthew Hendley Tue., Jun. 26 2012 at 1:51 PM

Categories: Mugshot of the Week

MCSO

Believe it or not, Moses Ulloa has a criminal history.

Moses Ulloa -- the man voted by our readers as having the third-dumbest hometown pride face tattoos in the Valley -- was arrested yet again yesterday.

Ulloa and his moronic tattoos -- which include the City of Glendale logo on the top of his head, "Murdercopa County" on his neck, horns on his forehead, and a bullet hole between the words "bullet proof" on the side of his head -- lined up for Ulloa's third mugshot at the Maricopa County Jail in four months.

Ulloa was popped this time around for allegedly possessing burglary tools, which is part of the reason he was in jail the last two times.

Another Stupid-Criminal Story

"Murdercopa County" Has Some Hometown Pride Locked Up in Jail Right Now

Moses Ulloa (left) and Vicente Valles.

Browsing through the "Mugshot of the Day Leader Board" on the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office website always brings a surprise, like the Sunday booking of Vicente Valles, who has the City of Tempe logo tattooed on his chin, and an Arizona State University logo on his cheek.

It kind of reminded us of Moses Ulloa, the man who has the City of Glendale logo tattooed on the top of his head.

Lo and behold, on the other side of some marginally attractive woman on the MCSO's leader board, there's Ulloa and his Glendale pride again.

Another Stupid-Criminal Story

Bobby White Allegedly Tried to Escape Cops, Appears to Have Lost

By Matthew Hendley Wed., Apr. 11 2012 at 11:18 AM

Categories: Another Stupid-Criminal Story, Mugshot of the Week

MCSO

Bobby White

There are a few reasons why it's not a good idea to run from or fight with police officers, attempt to out-drive them, or try to reach for a gun while cops are trying to handcuff you.

The photo to the right, of 18-year-old Bobby White, may be one of those reasons.

According to court documents obtained by New Times, police were following up on an incident near 67th Avenue and Osborn Road around 2:30 a.m. Monday when a call came in about a guy with a gun about half a mile away.

When officers saw a car speeding away from the intersection, they followed it until the car ran into a power pole and flipped upside down.

That sparked the foot chase, as police say White started running and reaching into one of his pockets before hopping into someone's backyard.

METH

Believe it or Not, a Police Officer Says He Found Meth in Moses Ulloa's Car

By Matthew Hendley Fri., Mar. 2 2012 at 3:14 PM

Categories: METH, Mugshot of the Week

MCSO

Moses Ulloa

According to a Glendale police officer, he found 10 grams of meth in a car being driven by the gentleman to our right.

In court documents obtained by New Times, the officer says he was driving the opposite direction of a car on 59th Avenue being driven by 31-year-old Moses Ulloa.

Police say Ulloa turned his headlights off, then back on, so the officer pulled him over.

Ulloa stopped his car, hung out the window, and yelled to the officer that he was sorry for flashing his headlights at him -- then drove away.

Since that's not how traffic stops work, the cop followed Ulloa until he stopped again.

Michelle Watson -- Mugshot Celebrity; Photo of Smiling Suspect in DUI and Cop Assault Goes Viral

By Ray Stern Wed., Nov. 23 2011 at 8:07 AM

Categories: Mugshot of the Week

Michelle Watson's mug shot went viral after the Smoking Gun posted details of her recent arrest.

Today, the slammer.

Tomorrow -- shopping for a publicity agent.

Michelle Watson, 24, has achieved fame -- or infamy -- after getting busted for super-extreme DUI, kneeing a cop in the groin, then posing for a mug shot like she'd just gotten off a roller coaster.

It's the irony of this mini-story that attracts us -- the pretty, exuberant girl in the orange jumpsuit is also the violent, cussing drunkard in a police report published by the Smoking Gun.
