Wanted Texas Man Has Social Security Number Tattooed to Forehead
KFOR ^ | JANUARY 9, 2018,

Posted on 01/09/2018 4:53:25 PM PST by nickcarraway

Texas authorities are searching for an allegedly armed career criminal with numerous facial tattoos, including his own social security number across his forehead.

Robert Wooten, 40, is currently wanted for stealing cigarettes from a Valero Corner Store on W. 43rd Street in Oak Forest twice last year, the constable’s office said.

On Oct. 15, an employee was forced to close the convenience store after the register went down. Officers said several customers, including Wooten, were waiting outside when the store later re-opened. As the group walked in, the suspect allegedly followed the employee and asked him a series of strange questions.

Court documents obtained by KIAH quote the suspect asking, “You care about your life?”

That’s when deputies said Wooten lifted his shirt, revealing a firearm tucked into his waistband on the right side. He demanded the employee give him various brands of cigarettes and the victim complied, investigators said.

The suspect returned to the same store on Nov. 4 to rob more cigarettes, according to police reports.

The constable’s deputy was able to identify Wooten as the suspect using his unique tattoo and the Houston criminal database. Wooten has another unique identifying tattoo, police said – Houston’s area code, 713, in large numerals across the entire front of his neck.

Wooten is no stranger to law enforcement. His criminal resume includes indecent exposure, aggravated robbery, violation of a protective order due to violence, burglary, and numerous drug-related charges. He has been arrested multiple times, including a conviction for drug possession that dates back to 2007. Investigators have connected Wooten to at least six armed robberies in Harris County area.

Anyone with information regarding the suspect’s whereabouts should call Crime Stoppers of Houston at 713-222-8477 or submit tips online at http://www.crime-stoppers.org. All tipsters will remain anonymous.

Maybe he’s hoping someone will steal his identity.

I’m guessing you wouldn’t have much luck trying to steal his identity to get credit or a loan....

Sounds like he’s committed dozens of serious crimes, and they just keep letting him out again. Not much point in arresting him again, if that’s what the judges intend to do.

Pretty sure anyone who stole his identity would pay to give it back.

If I were to tattoo my SS number on my forehead, I’d do it mirror image. That way I wouldn’t have to bother remembering it. I could always look in a mirror.

Reminds me of the fine upstanding ex-con I encountered in an ER once who had “F*CK” tattooed on his right eyelid and “YOU” on his left. Surefire way to impress people!

He should do tattoo a mirror image on his forehead. That way, if he can’t remember it, he need only hold a mirror to his face.
