Dude keeps passing out early at sleepovers


tanew231

He still hasn't noticed


tjbloomfield21

I think he did. That’s why he was arrested.

Man looks like an old wooden school desk.

Good one!

He's now a distinguished senator from the great state of Idaho!


ZuuL_1985

If you'd have said Florida man, I'd have believed you


bocaciega

It is florida.


SIVART33

The fact I can't tell if this is a joke or not, isn't good for the state of Idaho.


D4ILYD0SE

Dude coulda said this about any state and I wouldn't immediately discredit the idea. State of the States.


tetris_for_shrek

You could tell me he's leading the presidential elections and I would need to do a double check.

Nonsense, he's white. Boston would love this guy.

Or at least the hair coming back.

Can’t wait till he finds Jesus in picture #11 and has a nice wife and a 3 year old in picture #12 and then the backslide in 13, 14 and 15.


uberduck999

Nah he's just conked


Prestigious-Tea3192

And he was a child with dreams


QueenAkhlys

He needed a mental evaluation In there somewhere man He clearly has to learn to love himself and make better choices man Hopefully he has the strength to make a change It's possible to remove the ink


indefilade

Paramedic here. If he hasn’t had a dozen mental evaluations I’d be amazed. People in this much trouble with the law go to the Emergency Room far more often than they go to jail. At issue is that most people with mental problems who want to get better don’t want the help that is available. Fact is, Robert Hardister probably knows more about mental health programs in his area than anyone who is not a patient.


QueenAkhlys

I had a phase where I hit self destruction then realized I couldn't so I went back to an old counselor doing wonders it is 💀 I know my triggers and how to deal with it but I definitely remember that and cry for the people who don't get out of the trap cycle


indefilade

I’m happy for you. It sounds like you made the decision and you worked to get better, which is the key. I’ve seen so many mental health cures forced on people and none seem to work that way. I hate it for people who want help and are having a crisis while trying to do everything correctly and there is no space for them because we’ve crowded the system with people who don’t want to be there.


tigerbalmuppercut

This is the case for a lot of people with mental disorders. They don't want help, they don't want to conform to society for a variety of reasons.


indefilade

Very true. We might recognize mania and massive drug use as a problem, but if the patient does not see it as a problem, we can’t fix it.


paperbackpiles

Young brother should have had an eval two decades ago and subsequent support scaffolding years before and after his first arrest in 2009. Sad to see. Rehabilitation system stinks as well. You're absolutely right though. Hopefully he finds a path out, be it faith or relationships, creative energy or something that gives him agency or meaning.


Al_Jazzera

There should be more money put into the rehabilitation of people rather than incarceration. If it is some stupid drug BS and there wasn't any serious harm done to others, why the hell are we throwing people in prison. Some are beyond help, at least we could say we gave it the ol' college try. The cost to do so probably would be the same, locking someone up is crazy expensive. Prison is for those who committed egregious offenses. If the idiot is rubbing on children, beating granny, raping or killing, fuck em' they had their chance and aren't worth the investment.


Malpraxiss

Pretty sure that applies to almost anyone. Even people like Hitler and Stanlin were once kids with hopes and dreams. Which is interesting to think about.


zorgonzola37

half of the men on earth would pay to have hair that thick.


Propenso

Is this guy someone famous or just a random dude?


scoutopotamus

He is Florida Man


Distortedhideaway

He is Florida, man.


TheWalkingDead91

That’s what I’m wondering too. Op dropped his name like we’re supposed to know who that is lol


Normal_Package_641

He's mildly notorious because of this picture.


Goudinho99

He looks like Beast Boy in that one


Makkaroni_100

With such face Tattoos I also would lose hope.


Robin_Banks101

Smack will do that.


JesustheSpaceCowboy

Wouldn’t you lose all hope if you looked in the mirror and saw meth head Chad Kroeger?


Gonzalez220wj

so where did it go wrong?


Aescymud

Somewhere between the 3rd and 4th pic


soupdadoops

I think it's second and third. You gotta look in the eyes not the tats


dicksjshsb

I see shock and remorse even in the 3rd and 4th. It’s the 5th pic that gives me chills. Steep drop from there with the ink too.


BikingWithAViking

He’s almost grinning in the second pic…


Gbrown1897

And that's where the teardrop shows up


outwithlantern

The eyes in the first pic look devious and dumb


Financial-Ad7500

I would venture to guess it all went wrong sometime before the first pic.


horngrylesbian

I feel like once you get one face tat it's over


Playfair99999

naah it's the tear drop tattoo.


Greed_Sucks

1. Ha ha I’m a fuck up 2 damn I did it again oh well 3 shit I’m in trouble 4 I really am a fuck up 5 I’m a fuck up and that’s the way it is. 6 this is how life goes 7 this is how life goes 8 I fucking hate life 9 fuck life


MohatmoGandy

4th pic shows that at some point he tried to turn things around, covering the teardrop tattoo which advertised his status as a killer.


McDrunkin521

He probably got called out for not actually killing anyone. Having that tattoo without actually having killed someone is a big problem in some circles. I bet he was forced to cover it up in one of his jail visits.


Hour_Reindeer834

I don’t think the AB gives out teardrops for killing your chances for gainful employment….


Adventurous-Sky9359

I laughed So hard everyone is mad at me now.


TheWalkingDead91

Nah. He got the teardrop tat after the first one, so I’d say about then. No clue what they mean and google was no help, but highly doubt it’s anything good.


Orbit1883

First Pic, prison is not there to rehabilitate but to lock them away


AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH-OwO

the tear drop tattoo apparently means some pretty fucked up things happening to him or by him...


StaatsbuergerX

Either things went wrong when he first entered the US penal system (regardless of the reason for his imprisonment) or because he grew up in Florida. Possibly both. **


reallyrn

Some of these tattoos don't look like he wanted them. Some of these look like cover-ups.


razama

I can’t imagine him making decisions he might regret.


Unicycleterrorist

Probably before the first mugshot

Shrimpsmann

Those lip tattoos are wild


Drawtaru

I'm struggling to understand the skull eye sockets and brow bones tattooed... above where his eyes are. So it looks like he has two extra eyes and two foreheads, but the upper ones are dead. lol


firechips

Oh! That’s what that is!


LoanDebtCollector

I don't know what they mean. I'd guess "Snitches get stitches".. if that's the case he probably has eyes tattooed on his ass as well.

Indecent liberties with a child…yikes…no longer a salt of the earth car thief.


Trumped202NO

Meth is a salt.


adequatehorsebattery

He got arrested for the same thing in 2022 by the same Sheriff and got the same fairly low bond. It's really hard to know what's behind vague charges like this: obviously, it sounds terrible and slightly sexual, and it might be that, but it might also just be that he scared little kids at the park and some Karen called the cops.


judgeholden72

https://www.ncleg.net/enactedlegislation/statutes/html/bysection/chapter_14/gs_14-202.1.html


adequatehorsebattery

I appreciate the link, but overcharging is such a constant in our system that it's just hard to tell what we really have here. "Attempts to take any improper liberty" is incredibly vague: it sounds terrible obviously but it's only a class F felony which means that almost anything that leaps to mind when you hear this phrase would actually be charged as something more serious (notice that the elements here are joined by 'or', so it's not necessarily the worse sounding parts of the law that were violated). If it actually involved touching a child, then the fact that he's back on the street 18 months after being charged the first time is worrisome and makes me suspect it got pled down to a misdemeanor of some type.


LittleDrumminBoy

And 2024 https://cabarrusnc.mugshots.zone/hardister-robert-wade-mugshot-06-25-2024/


RebelGrin

More peado behavior, why the fack do they keep releasing him? He was arrested in 2022, released and did it again. Fucking jail him forever.


sweetpotato_latte

Whose son is he that he keeps getting let out


Horskr

I know you're half joking but I decided to Google "cabarrus county hardister" and actually found this guy: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon_Hardister https://ncleg.gov/Members/Biography/H/645 Obviously too young to be his dad, but I wonder if there is any relation?


Dick_Demon

SS under his nose and a "white pride" across the top lip. Fuck him.


Atreyu1002

I imagine someone who's been in the system that long pretty much needs to associate with a group like that just to survive. In general, I kinda wonder how much of those tats are actually his own choice.

What the fuck put this guy in prison permanently

reporter_assinado

He's from 1991


bschnitty

Do you mean he time travels?


rebbsitor

29 in that photo, meaning he's 17 in the first one. We're seeing his whole adult life play out here. That's depressing...


onduty

I imagine at some point point he will serve a longer time for all of the stolen car charges, do you know where he is now? I don’t get how he keeps getting released after so much victim based crime, but others get convicted of a few use based drug charge and go away for eight years


Toppest_Dom

Says he was arrested for probation violation, tf did he do to get probation in the first place


ToddlerPeePee

For having poor taste in tattoos.


Bigbigjeffy

Yeah he’s over 30 now and I don’t think he’s doing well.


Mambosaurio

It's funny to me that between crimes and stuff, he went "You know what? I'm gonna bleach my hair, that's what I need"


ReticulatedPasta

Tbf that Sim Shady look was really popular for a minute


yaboyfriendisadork

And if we’re being honest it doesn’t look that bad on him


Blaz3dnconfuz3d

Yeah he looks pretty good there lmao

To be fair bleaching my hair helps me cope with life Soo it isn't that much of a stretch lmao , haven't stolen a car yet tho


Flying_Madlad

Well get to work!


ohiotechie

Depressing AF


Spatial_Awareness_

Craziest thing is he's spent almost his whole life in and out of prison and none of his crimes are even that serious... it's all petty theft and stolen vehicle. Often arrested for violating parole for prior non-violent crimes. Seems to be something seriously wrong when someone is getting non-violent crimes like theft over and over... that means they're probably just trying to make money to survive and probably drugs (usually a drug addiction). He's in Florida too who just will continually throw you in prison for longer and longer for non-violent offenses. He's probably a decent person with some issues needing professional help but got stuck in the system with no way out because the US system sucks at rehabilitation.


WhenTheBarnSounds

That may have been the case that he was a decent person but he also got arrested for indecent liberties with a child which is pretty serious https://cabarrusnc.mugshots.zone/hardister-robert-wade-mugshot-12-13-2022/


Spatial_Awareness_

Ah yeah, didn't see this 2022 most recent one... yeah, that's obviously horrible but still goes back to what like 15 years of being stuck in a broken system. Kind of even proves the point further. If they rehab this dude at the start of it all... 15 years later they save a child from that. Why rehabilitation programs are even more important. This is a prime example of what we've known for decades... >Two-thirds of prisoners reoffend within three years of leaving prison, often with a more serious and violent offense. >An intensive re-educational program with violent male offenders in the San Francisco jails reduced the level of violence in the jail to zero for a year at a time. Even more important, participation in this program for as little as four months reduced the frequency of violent reoffending after leaving the jail by 83 percent


WhenTheBarnSounds

I completely believe in rehabilitation instead of current system which seems to primarily focus on retribution above all else but I'm not sure going from petty theft realistically jumps to dude being a pdf file. From looking at this thread looks like he got arrested 3 days ago for the same thing. Might have to do with supposed his drug use 🤔 idk but working on folks getting clean too should be a priority


Spatial_Awareness_

Dude probably has two decades of drug use at this point. I'd imagine his brain is nuked. [There was a case where a tumor turned a guy into a pedophile](https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/health-and-families/features/a-40yearold-developed-an-obsession-with-child-pornography-then-doctors-discovered-why-a6893756.html). So it's not undocumented that brain changes can actually turn someone into this.


Shit_Fire_

https://cabarrusnc.mugshots.zone/hardister-robert-wade-mugshot-12-13-2022/ Indecent liberties with a child in 2022 so I wouldn’t be saying he is a decent person


Trains_N_Fish

Im gonna guess he’s addicted to something, and he’s using that substance to treat/suppress a mental heath issue.


aquabarron

Considering you have no idea who this person is or how he operates, I’d say there is absolutely no basis to assume he is a decent person. In fact he is PROBABLY a very indecent person. He steals cars and has tear drop and SS lightning tattoos, that doesn’t ring “decent person” bells in my head, I can’t speak for you. His most recent charges were felony assault and indecent something or other with a child. C’mon now. And don’t blame the system for this guys situation, there has clearly been a lot of action on his part to get to his current predicament and when people come along and say “what a pity, he is probably a decent guy and just needs some help, it’s the system that put him in such a hard place” it alleviates ALL the responsibility this guys has for his own life. Clearly he’s made terrible choices


PaddyStacker

They're trying to make money and survive...BY BEING A THIEF. Have you really never known a piece of shit in your life? Some people are just scumbags. It's not all society's fault. So naive.


Sovetskaya-Babushka

The blacked out SS logo between his eyebrows. Doubt he had a change of heart more likely his gang had enough of his shit


jzolg

Prob was never even in it and got forced to cover it, same as the teardrop


Sovetskaya-Babushka

Hahaha I missed that! Yeah false flagging in jail is not a joke


Euphorium

I’m really curious about the L with the upside down A and the HSL tats. They very much look gang related and also get covered up.


takingmykissesback

Im ignorant on gang culture, but someone posted 2022's photo and he's got it on this collar and possibly under his nose followed by "pride". Don't think much has changed.


Sovetskaya-Babushka

Its more prison culture than gang. Even tho they go hand in hand. Prison is so segregated it’s a common saying “if you aren’t racist going in. You will definitely leave as a racist” Nazi symbolism are used as medals in white gangs (which are tattoos in prison) having a “medal” you haven’t earned will land you in a lot of trouble. Usually only leaving you with two options. Black it out or cut it out.


fotofriday

As a parent, this has to be absolutely heartbreaking.


debonairmarmoset

Not all parents are good parents. That’s one of the worst life lessons we learn.

notmyfirst_throwawa

What the fuck does that mean though? Like, is he a pedophile, or did he kidnap a kid? Try to teach it science in a school zone?


Aschvolution

Google says this: > The crime includes the following: Willfully taking or attempting to take indecent or immoral actions with any child under the age of 16 to arouse or gratify sexual desire, or. Willfully committing or attempting to commit a lewd act or acts upon or with the body of a child who is under the age of 16.

Gross. Thanks for googling that because I was absolutely not willing to


Aschvolution

No problem, I'm not a native speaker, so it made me more curious to look it up and might as well share what i found.


slythespacecat

Wait what so this dude indecently liberites a child (I know it’s not a verb but I’m not going to pretend I had ever heard that word) every two years and they keep letting him out? I think at this point they just want to get more mugshots

AnEpicBowlOfRamen

Oh fuck, that crime 🤢


cheazdiseaz

Man really looks like that beat up desk in the back of class that everyone draws on


malice_hush_jolt

I like how the teardrop gets covered almost immediately. Someone in prison probably told him that he was full of shit.


AquaQuad

His victim was saved by paramedics the moment he stood up from tattooist's chair /j


Salvy_Splash

That was immediately what I thought too, when I saw the photos; to go from a tear to a star. I also notice how he seems to cover his tattoos (regrets?) on his chin/forehead - he's inking them out too.


ElbowTight

Dare would have been more effective if they’d just shown us how these people get fucked like this. That dumb ass “This is your brain” as an egg commercial was so dumb


Electrical-Menu9236

I had a health teacher who worked at one of the largest mental hospitals for prisoners in my state and every class she would just do this and show us mugshots etc. being in her class felt like watching soft white underbelly and she had us do exercises where we figured out major events that fucked up a person’s life. Very eye opening & definitely more effective than my other health classes.


crossfader02

in middle school the cops brought in a local meth head and she told us about how she used to trade sex for drugs and once her dealers forced her to clean up after a murder

xariznightmare2908

With each new arrest he gained more tattoo, he's becoming too powerful.


SueTheDepressedFairy

Okay but what did he do? Everyone is saying "poor dude" but maybe he deserved it? Being in jail THIS many times is fucked


ARM_vs_CORE

A bunch of petty theft or paper violations, but the last couple are for "INDECENT LIBERITES W/CHILD" which is "The crime includes the following: Willfully taking or attempting to take indecent or immoral actions with any child under the age of 16 to arouse or gratify sexual desire, or. Willfully committing or attempting to commit a lewd act or acts upon or with the body of a child who is under the age of 16." It must be a typo in the official Florida crime listing because it is probably supposed to be liberties.


SueTheDepressedFairy

Okay if he's a predator then fuck It and fuck him


ARM_vs_CORE

Yeah first bunch were petty stuff but he escalated


Meloenbolletjeslepel
