"Popcorn" Sutton Mugshot

This is the creepiest story and mugshot I've seen in a while. To quote the Knoxville News Sentinel:

Nationally renowned moonshiner Marvin "Popcorn" Sutton was sentenced to 18 months in prison today for illegally brewing spirits and possessing a firearm as a convicted felon, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

Sutton has spent more than three decades building a reputation as one of the South’s top makers of white lightning. He’s starred in various documentaries about the tradition and penned an autobiography, "Me and My Likker."

And the mugshot (brace yourself):

Even if I were capable of growing a beard like that, I probably wouldn't. However, I totally wish "Popcorn" was my nickname.

Cornbread, in my opinion, is quite a few magnitudes better.
