Bizarre but true stories about real people collected by syndicated columnist Chuck Shepherd.
In March, The Australian newspaper identified an upswing in the business of some beauticians who have responded to customers’ desires to lighten the skin around their anuses. A beautician in Sydney said she had long been helping sex workers for that condition but that lately the clients are civilians trying to please boyfriends who are taken by how “clean and light” porno actresses seem. Said another beautician of the ingredient she uses, “I explain that it will give them eczema and (other problems), but they want it anyway.”
Easy Identifications:
–Awiey “Chucky” Hernandez, 20, was arrested when he went to the 90th Precinct station house in Brooklyn, N.Y., to check on the status of a pal and inadvertently stood directly in front of his own “wanted” poster (on robbery and drug charges). The in-custody pal Hernandez had come to inquire about was Huquan “Guns” Gavin, 18, who appears with him on the poster.
–Charles Cross Jr., was arrested on the street minutes after allegedly robbing a Fifth Third Bank in Louisville, Ky., in May, because he displayed the effects of having been looking directly into his stash bag at the moment the red-dye device exploded.
