What was public intox guy's name?
 

A long time ago there was a thread about a guy who would get thrown in jail just about daily, and all the goofy mug shots that were posted of him. Anyone remember his name? I tried doing a search, but I couldn't find the thread. I thought I would check up and see some new pics.

Ah Henry Earl!

Well, nearly 12 hours later, I finally read this post and was ready to reply, but it seems that I've been beaten like Ed Belfour. Oh well.

Otis?

Congrats to Mr. Earl on arrest number 1000!

Lexington Man Arrested 1,000 Times

So... shouldn't this guy get a life sentence as kind of a lifetime achievement award and stop wastnig the cops' time?

If you're going to do something, do it right and be good at it. Mr. Earl has found his calling.

Some beverage company should buy the rights to Henry Earl's mugshots or something and make a malt beverage that has a Henry Earl mugshot on it..It would make Henry Earl the world's most unlikely success story, and be a hilarious malt beverage. I mean, if a malt beverage can be hilarious.

According to the link above, he got 1000 days for his 1000 arrest. Looks like the story will be closed for a while (unless his attorney can appeal on the grounds of cruel and unusual).

Henry Earl: Setting The Record Straight - September 25, 2008

Henry Earl: Setting The Record Straight
Tallying up the arrest history of the famous Kentucky drunk

SEPTEMBER 25--While we don't want to minimize the truly prodigious achievements of the oft-arrested Henry Earl, the Kentucky man did not, as has been reported, get busted for the 1000th time this week. In fact, Earl--who is prone to frequent episodes of public drunkenness--actually passed that milestone in mid-2002, according to official documents. Relying on online records that only date back to 1992, bloggers and a Kentucky TV station noted this week that the 58-year-old Earl's rap sheet hit four digits Monday when he was nabbed on a Lexington street for public intoxication. However, pre-1992 jail records reveal that Earl has actually been arrested in Fayette County a whopping 1333 times and has spent more than 5000 days in custody. His first arrest came in July 1970, when he was 20, for carrying a concealed weapon. Earl, pictured in the below mug shot array, would go on to get busted 33 more times in the 1970s, and he racked up 230 busts during the 1980s. Click here for a compendium of Earl's arrest history from 1970-1992, which was provided by the county's Division of Community Corrections. And if you'd like to view a typical criminal citation against Earl, who is currently incarcerated, click here. It covers his 1332nd bust, on August 31, for public intoxication. (4 pages)
