Mugs in the News: The Faces that Made This Week's Crime Headlines
The following mug shots were taken from various Patch crime reports between June 23 and June 29.
Information for Mugs in the News is provided by the St. Charles County and St. Louis County law enforcement agencies. Charges are not evidence of guilt. They are a record of police actions taken on a given day, and persons charged with a crime are presumed innocent until proven guilty in court. If you or a family member are charged or cited and the case is subsequently adjudicated, we encourage you to notify the editor. We will verify and report the outcome.

Mugs In The News?...I am sure that it's easy to get the photos and details from the various police departments...And, most likely there is an interest by readers to see the faces and read the unlawful things done by these people. I still wish that it would be easier to attain the photos and the details of the quality people in O'Fallon who make life better for people. Any chance?

Jim, you've got a good point, and we devote quite a bit of our coverage to all the great things people are achieving and doing for each other. In fact, we've also got a special place on our sites to which we invite, encourage and remind everyone to upload photos or videos of random acts of community leadership, tributes to people, events, fun moments, scenes from around town, and interesting ways that we're making our communities better. It's a Patch tab called "Pics & Clips." The example of it in my area is located at http://eureka-wildwood.patch.com/pics. A reader just loaded some delightful shots of vacation scenes. We hope readers will use that community service tool to its fullest!

Thanks Julie, I do agree that the Patch gives coverage to the achievements of people, and that's good. I just don't understand the need for Mugs In The News, unless this is a marketing effort for readership. I did look at where this weeks Mugs In The News lived, or where their crimes took place and noticed that none of them were in my hometown of O'Fallon. I am reading the O'Fallon Patch but these "Mugs were not O'Fallon Mugs"...?

I think the mugs are a good thing to post.It may save someone from falling into the same crime that the victims were by looking and remembering the pictures.

Of course it is still not possible to please 100 percent of the people, 100 percent of the time, as far as I've heard?
