Voyeur hid cell phone in rear

Jeffrey Barrier, of my hometown Cincinnati, Ohio, was allegedly trying to snap phonecam pics of nude women in a tanning salon. Police were called but Barrier denied the charges. Then they found his cell phone in his butt. According to a Hamilton County Sheriff's Office report, Barrier "hid evidence in his anus." The Smoking Gun has more. Link (Thanks, Tara McGinley!)

Maybe somebody called

No, it wasn’t on vibrate. It was set to silent, but deadly.

Ouch, that could hurt, especially if it was a Blackberry. Or would that be a Dingleberry?

Ah, the Cincinnati stash: twisted sibling of the more-famous and equally-unpleasant Cleavand steamer.

dingleberry? only if you left a call hanging

CORNERS. Jesus, people. And probably no more lube than the cold, clammy sweat of the moment.

Everybody’s butthole deserves better, even criminals.

Simply asinine.

How many minutes does his plan have?

oh, come on… SOMEBODY has to say it: pix or it didn’t happen.

So, in the end, he had a Brownie camera?

Oh, geez. I’m glad I stumbled on this thread. Hahahaha!

There are a lot of hot women in Cincinnati, but you need to have a better plan to get naked pictures. Maybe do a Cincinnati naked tanning salon GIS.

/OK, I did that – maybe not.

Hope it wasn’t an old Motorola Brick…. he’d end up looking like frickin’ Spongebob.

I’m guessing he is an AT&T customer: more bars in more places.

Note to self: Never borrow another person’s cell phone — you don’t know where they’ve been.

Ah well, no-one did it… Did he ring himself up?

He’d just eaten some goetta and a Three-Way and was doing what he could in a social situation, really.

Be careful next time you buy a cell phone off Ebay. You don’t know where it has been before …

Holy crap, I went to high school with that guy. And he is likely the most famous, at this point. Which says a lot about my high school.

Either way, the phone is definitely buggered now!

He was just trying to change his ringtone.

No, actually he had to have put it in his rectum. The anus is the ring of muscle that keeps the rectum closed.

there’s no law against keeping your phone there. I suggest it for passing through TSA held territory.

Ahahahaha, Lonin. You win.

Or maybe he’s just a cyanide and happiness fan.
