Sun Sentinel A man with a tribal tattoo covering nearly all of his face was arrested Monday after an officer saw him lighting a crack pipe at a Boca Raton gas station, city police say. Keith Diaferia’s tattoo earned him a spot on the Boca Raton Police Department’s Facebook page, with the caption declaring his photo the “Mugshot of the Day.” The 54-year-old Boynton Beach man attracted an officer’s attention after getting out of his truck and into a BMW at the BP gas station on Glades Road. Suspecting drug use, the officer pulled up next to the BMW in an unmarked vehicle and peeked inside, according to Diaferia’s arrest report. After seeing Diaferia put a clear pipe in his mouth and light it, he walked up to the car. Diaferia tried to hide the pipe. The officer saw a bag of syringes in the lap of the driver, later identified as Jessica Supel, 32, of West Palm Beach. Inside her bag were seven needles, five bags of heroin, a crack cocaine rock, a pipe and pills, the report says. Supel faces multiple counts of drug possession charges, while Diaferia’s facing drug equipment possession and tampering with evidence charges. Tuesday, they remained in the county jail, where bail is set at $9,000 for Supel and $3,000 for Diaferia.
I guarantee that, as a 54-year-old man, there are days when Keith Diaferia wakes up and regrets the giant tribal tattoo that is covering half of his face. None more than today though, because when cops see a guy with a tattoo like that on their face, they probably are going to assume that the guy is up to no good and keep a close eye on him. In this case, the cops were right, because Keith Diaferia instantly smoked crack. Is this a bit of profiling? Of course it is, but it was obvious when you saw Keith Diaferia’s tattoo that he didn’t work closely with kids or the church, and that he was not an upstanding member of society. How pissed is Jessica Supel, the chick who got busted on a ton of drug charges because the cops kept a closer eye on Keith Diaferia due to his tattoo? She is never going to stop nagging Keith Diaferia over this one, “You had to get that giant tribal face tattoo, didn’t you?” Plus didn’t tribals go out in the mid-1990′s after Pamela Anderson’s movie “Barbed Wire”?
