LOS ANGELES - A California gang member was convicted Wednesday of first-degree murder after authorities say a tattoo on his chest depicting the murder scene led to his apprehension. 25-year-old Anthony Garcia (pictured above) could face life in prison for his role in the 2004 shooting at a Pico Rivera liquor store.
Garcia eluded police until 2008 when he was picked up for driving with a suspended license. Suspecting that he was an active member of the Rivera-13 gang, police then photographed his tattoos and took a mugshot.
While looking for leads on an entirely different crime, Det. Sgt. Kevin Lloyd came across Garcia's picture in the mug book when something struck him: "it looked like a murder from way back when." He then drove to the liquor store named on Garcia's tattoo and cross-referenced with the old case file.
Lloyd was so struck by the detailed accuracy of the tattoo that he called it a "crime scene sketch and a confession."

We have to declined to such a low point that even our criminals are too dumb to avoid being caught.

“A product of LA union schools and Democrat government.”
Not just LA union schools. Chicago PS system champions the exact same type of “scholar.”
