Los Angeles gangbanger Anthony Garcia was so proud of his work during a 2004 liquor store robbery and murder that he recreated the scene on a giant tattoo across his chest. Unfortunately, Garcia's tattoo artist did such a good job that LAPD detectives recognized the scene of the unsolved crime when they photographed Garcia's ink after they picked him up on a minor charge in 2008. That led to a three-year investigation that resulted in Garcia's first-degree murder conviction. But, you know, he's still got the cred, right?
