Much like the Famous Writers Shirtless posts, here we'll occasionally dive into mugshots of the criminally-inclined writers who found themselves in the big house.
Mugshots? Yes, please.
Today: Neal Cassady
Beatnik Neal Cassady had a little five-finger discount in his blood and enjoyed stealing cars as a youth, reportedly snatching upwards of 500 sweet rides between the ages of 14-21.
In 1944, at the age of 18, Cassady was popped by Denver police and spent a little time in the big house to cool his heals.
Apparently the city of Denver attempted to strangle those they arrested during mugshots.
