I wouldnt mind more serious content like this
seems like it hit kind of home, which one of the cracked crew has a mugshot floating around out there? Is it Soren?... i bet it's soren
Can Doodle Probably him or Swaim
Can Doodle they did a personal experience article on this. They turned that article into a video. I still loved both the video and the article
The truth is it could be anyone arrested in the last decade or so and it's a miscarriage of justice. My husband got pulled over and arrested because he was designated driver and before going out drinking a
friend's of a friend had robbed a house so the cops arrests everyone in the vehicle, all 8 guys. My husband is army and has top secret clearance for his job. Fortunately, he was able to explain it to his commander and because he was the being a responsible NCO by being the DD he was able to pass it off as privates (e-1 to e-3 rank) are stupid but it could have devastated his military career. Despicable!
I love how this had 506 like and zero dislikes lol everyone agrees
Thank you, Dan & the rest of Cracked. It makes me kinda angry that "humour" sites are the only ones brave enough to tackle things like this.
I’m sure I could write an entire paper, just chronicling how Cracked Magazine, a publication that started out, according to my mother, as the even more low-brow kid brother of Mad Magazine, became one of the most hard-hitting vanguards of American journalism, in a time when even reputable news publications are being swayed by corporate fudging, hearsay, and duplicitous bad-faith representatives... and all this change happened seemingly overnight.
It’s like if the Garbage Pail Kid cards became the only media source you could trust. I’m sure there’s a fascinating story behind how this shift occurred, but I’m lazy and hate research.
If I had to guess though... it probably started with hiring more female editors.
I was holding tea and actually took a sip, waited, and comically spat it out when he read the price. That was the highlight of my day.

Your day must have sucked
That was one hell of a sidebar
I think this is my new favorite quote: "I think the ease of understanding with which we employ 'It makes sense from a business stand-point' these days, is deeply troubling. Because it implies on our part, a tasked complicity in a system where practices that we all acknowledge to be inherently unfair and morally bankrupt, are okay because “business” as a concept, exists in a separate plain divorced from any sense of decency where making the most money at the fastest rate trumps literally anything else." - Daniel O’Brien
*plane
great quote, thank you
Great video. Reminds me of something from Last Week Tonight. I would love to see more of these issue pieces. Perhaps not the funniest video from cracked, but worth watching.
This^ comment was a lie, as usual.
+ Critical Hit How is it a lie?
quantumperception That's what I was thinking as well.
This is why broadcast tv is dying, becuase they won't do stuff like this.
dangerouslytalented they do in the uk
This is basically a John Oliver bit with fewer gags, higher information density, and a lower budget.
Which, btw, is mostly a compliment. Keep up the good work, Dan.
I love how Daniel's description of the immorality of business essentially sums up the inevitable reality of capitalism itself.
my mugshot appeared every 5 minutes in a news article on a huge screen on the face of the biggest mall in town. the charges were dropped ofcourse but the news website continued to show the article on the building for a whole month, even though everything in the article was either false or grossly exagerated. this led to lots of people thinking i was a criminal and in some cases some people even called me out when i went outside in public spaces.
a lawyer told me that suing the website would have ultimately cost me more than i would have possibly gained, so in the end i just had to wait for the whole thing to blow over and hope people dont google my name.
i joke about it now, but it still sucks ass when i think about it
This has a 'last week tonight' feel to it
This was incredible. Cheers Dan and Soren (for writing the article)
I have this exact problem due to dumb mistakes on other people's parts, the only time I was at fault was because I didn't have enough money for an overpriced ticket I'd ALREADY Paid twice before. Nobody would know that just looking at my mugshot though.
I love videos like this. Explaining stuff that's probably not well known but hugely important.
I'm facing that situation now thanks to an angry ex that will never see consequences, but I will never be able to have it all removed, even after all charges were dropped with no evidence found. Not the funniest like you said but I've always preferred informative videos.

"the internet was a mistake"
-Daniel O'Brien (Cracked editor in chief)
There was a man in my state who was beaten almost to death after just busted (mugshot paper) messed up and put "sexual assault of a minor"....when he was actually arrested for not paying a damn speeding ticket.
Here's the divide at cracked. O'brian does one of these videos and I'm interested and don't mind that it isn't comedy because it's well done. About anyone else there does anything like this and it sounds like a crackpot conspiracy theory.
This is a really good video. I'm always happy to see this guy's face, his videos are clearly the best on the channel. Keep it up!
That map still confuses the hell out of me.
Seriously Daniel, this was really good. You don't have to be funny - just keep producing more quality content like this.
Wow. This is some dystopian level shit. Another day another chance to loose even more trust in my America
I've read the article, it is a good and informative piece and I highly recommend it.
I remember reading the article with Will. I'm glad you guys made a video about this, cuz it's outrageously shady.
I know these types of videos and scripted ones like After Hours have a much higher work investment required, but they are seriously the best content of the channel and are why I'm still subscribed and put up with the clickbait and constant text only videos (which are sometimes ok, but generally not that great).
9:43 LMAO! I did not take a drink, but I did have a literal spit-take at that number!
I don't trust any person who hasn't been to prison. Having been to prison doesn't guarantee you're a decent human being, but being able to witness the evil and injustice of the sociopathic capitalist hegemony and avoid going to prison fighting it definitely means you're not.
Why is Cracked better at investigative journalism than the Mainstream Media?!
Keep fighting the good fight Daniel
Dan O'Brien, , if you read this comment, i just wanna say that if i ever met you in person i would totally risk my self esteem and ask you out. That is all. As you were.
Fun fact: if you are never processed into holding, the mugshot is taken but never uploaded to any database. It's true. Get somebody to bail you out extremely quickly and you can avoid the whole mugshot problem.
So if I'm wealthy this isn't a problem for me?
Can never get enough Daniel!
I really liked this video. Had no idea about any of this. I love your comedy but you're great at this stuff too. It IS important, and a good chunk of Americans are good people who happen to have mugshots. Good coverage of this topic, and executed very nicely and comprehendable.
P.S.unrelated but it's like 7am cause i just watched like all of your guys' podcasts at an ungodly hour
Anyway good video!
Why can't I stop watching you guys...
That sidebar was the most important thing anyone at Cracked has ever said
I like this sort of investigative video. It should be a regular thing
Just gonna let you know that if there's a moderate to large mistake on your credit report it can be nearly impossible at times to change those mistakes. Anyways, good episode.
Is the Nile river turned horizontally in the picture behind him or am I crazy
Look closer. The whole world is cracked.
This was rad. The kind of stuff I want to see from Cracked, and not the honest ad stuff.
Then we need to make a federal law requiring all mughsot sites to include context for the arrest. If someone sees that a person wasn't convicted, or even never went to trial, it should be obvious that the person isn't necessarily and more dangerous to hire than someone with no mugshot online.
L
Mike Mac should be.....but would it?
Mike Mac then the company won't make profit from having the person pay lots of money trying to remove it. At least not the hundreds they receive from their unethical business practice they'd just get add money.
Or you could spread stuff like this video so that potential employers can see it. If they know these sites are bullshit and run by amoral assholes they almost certainly use them. And no need to get the government involved where they don't belong.
Good luck trying to enforce that. Especially with sites who have a domain outside of America.
i didn't even know this was a problem. thanks, now i feel more educated. 👍
@cracked Daniel you are very good at this format would love to see more. you are the best!
Another example of why making domain owner hidden is a mistake.
" An easily goolagoo mugshot is an easy galoogooloo mugshot"
You didn't even get into the public records websites that are offering the rep management services. I would hazard to guess 75% are the same company. Public records companies have a lot more than mug shots, they also have things like your address, phone number, birthday, court records, etc.
What is this, I hear someone talking, de fuck kinda Cracked video is that.
Also, it was a very good video.
Beautifully Awesomely Put! I love you guys
is this isn't fair. Daniel, do something. Daniel come on, do something Daniel. Daniel? Come on.
12:06 hey look, there's the email behind it!
HUGE FAN, Cracked, would you commit to consistently linking your sources in the description? Even better, link to pdf copies of the source material, hosted by Cracked independently? This would be better than links to webpages because Hilary Mason's article is no longer available on her website (like many other articles web-news outlets cite, it's safe to say); this problem would be avoided if Cracked did host an archive.
Thank you!
I'm probably the only person who read your comment. Too bad I don't work for Cracked.
Daniel could do a video on paint drying and he'd still somehow make it interesting to watch!
in some states Deeds are posted online. The states justify this by saying Deeds are public information at the courthouse, even though a Deed can include name, address, phone number and social security number
Maybe get a super awesome fictional hacker to do it like Chloe from SHIELD, or the girl from the reboot MacGyver.I wouldn't pay those prices, I think a lot of others couldn't as well.
Yep. I grew up in the streets and lived that life for the better part of 30 yrs, it wasn't all that optional but it's a long story. Add to that addictions (use, you're always addicted) that spanned well over a decade and activism that I been involved in since my early teens and ya get a serious mugshot collection spanning multiple states. They're all over the internet, even YO pics somehow. But what's weird is that most I've seen have another name on em entirely and almost never have the correct charges included. Search my name and a bunch of other mugshots come up, none of which are mine unless ya scroll down a bit. Fortunately when I got out last time and decided to get outta the life I was able to get a pretty good job so I haven't really dealt with any negative effects. I've had most of this brought to my attention by other people though, so someone was searching, they just got bogus ass info. It ain't good. And something has to be done. This "justice" system is broken enough and mfs have hard enough time making it through without capitalist exploitation of their fuck ups and trauma. It's sick.
Of course this will never change
I love this guy and his way of explaining things. I did a bit in a zine that was on exactly this topic. Condoned blackmail.
I can't be the only one that thinks it looks like he's doing a 'not my arms challenge' and those are some dude behind hims arms
Great video.
What is up with that map in the back ground? The Amazon river system looks odd, there is a water system in the American North West, the Nile seems to flow east, and there is a new bay east of Korea and Eastern Russia is missing.
Wow, actual voice
What year is this?
Hmm that wall street journal article at 2:53 seems pretty inaccurate. Only 9,000 people surveyed across a 13 year period which includes the 2008 recession. Even in 2017 I don't know a single 25 year old (with a college degree and clean record) who owns a home.
Dont worry guys, I'll create a websitr likr this but put photos of the site owners who do this kind of shit, and other scumbags like that.
an awkward guy pretending to be more awkward than normal telling you how something is wrong? Daniel ruins everything?
Thank you for exposing this
Great episode, Cracked!
This must’ve been in Dan’s audition reel for his new job with John Oliver. Miss these guys. Still doing good videos though
Excellent leg work on this one.
This is a frighteningly informative video.
10: 13 Ralph Wiggum?
Thank you profusely for this.
what is with the map in the background? like, is there really just a big island in the centre of America?
MILOSWIZ nah i think it's just cracked - get it? hohoho
Maya Normasbutt yeah, but if you look up at the top left at 1:25 you'll see that there's an island inside the US/Canada
He still doesn't get it...
One of the other problems with this is that, when your surfing what ever dating cite you use, it makes it more complicated to tell the difference between the actual criminals and the people who just made a bad decision, didnt know the law well enough to know that what they did was illegal (i didnt know that skateboarding in subway stations was illegal, especially considering how many people do it regardless or how little people actually walk between subway stations underground), or the got a mug shot for some bullshit reason like a racist or power hungry cop.
thank you for not turning into a buzzfeed that place is horrible
At last... an honorable target for hackers. Remember remember the 5th of November.
video of an article, this is how to do it. not just throw "typy sounds" captions at video clips. wooot cracked is learning!!!!
Great content Daniel, came back to watch this following the recent debate point on voter rights where presidential candidates have been pitted with in terms of allowing felons such as the Boston bomber to vote (clearly trying to evoke a very specific Us good folk vs Them who deserve to be punished with fury narrative). I remembered just how fucked up the prison industrial complex has worked to incarcerate 2.2 million people (with POC being overrepresented), with places like SC having the worlds largest prison population and even Democrats like Biden and Kamala Harris who are responsible for sponsoring some bills which rose the numbers.
20 years ago I said the internet would destroy civilization. This kind of stuff will go a long way towards that happening.
It's also showing us how to solve the problems
And THAT is why EU implemented GDPR. Mugshots over here is NOT public property, it is NOT publicly available information and you need consent from the person depicted to distribute it. And even then you may only distribute it within the parameters set up within the agreement with that person and only for the purposes you claim it is for. If any of that is broken, you may face fines of up to £1.6 million (around $2.1 million), depending on scope, severity and frequency of the trespass.
How to avoid a shit life : always run from police LOL
i spent a long time trying to find mine, i couldnt, so im not worried, i know its out there somewhere
This is amazing make more stuff like this
Was setting up my comical spit take, and choked
Yelp does something similar to this, they post a bad review and make you pay to remove it. Even if you have ever signed up with them. Someone needs to check this out.💚
Thanks to "Roger" and bits like this, I'm starting to not laugh as much at Cracked.com as I used to, but get EXTREMELY pissed off!!! ^_^
It really is not fair to be punished before proven guilty but public mugshots do that
Yea my mugshot has completely ruined my life
Great work!
This made me sad.
Hey, look at Dan O'Brien doing some real live grownup journalism. Nice!
this was...surprisingly interesting. kudos
“Your mugshot” lol like the majority of us have mugshots? Like this is some normal thing that you got arrested and booked and now need to be concerned about said photo.
Keep explaining us stuff Cracked.
I disagree that we should censor this information, its public and needs to be put there. Instead we should stop treating criminality as such a big deal unless its violent or predatory. There should be a way to remove everything, but ONLY if the charges are dropped or your acquitted.
ok, what is the easier solution then, changing the opinions and attitudes of the government to be pro censorship, or the opinions and attitudes of everyone to be pro crime... Love living in the UK at least all we have to worry about is stupid degenerates wanting Brexit and the wash that vote was, rather than Hillary, Trump and a messed up corrupt law enforcement and government.

Even if your idea was made into law, you can bet those sites would set up some insane requirements to get mug shots taken down at the request of anyone less than a judge or lawyer. It's how the loan shark business is still going in spite of laws trying to shut them down.
Well, there are already a wide variety of opinions about that, but I don't disagree that we should go easier on people convicted of crimes. However, these websites do not list the crime, nor is it in their interest to do so; if they did, they would drastically reduce their leverage over people who were arrested for either something they didn't do, or for something widely regarded as harmless. That leverage is their bread and butter.
So while I agree with your suggestion, I don't think it would really solve this particular problem.
+Jane Doe By loan sharks, you mean insurance companies, who are supported by the federal government.
MrARKY89 I mean companies like Quicken Loan that promise a quick and easy loan now, then add on as much interest as possible. They set such high terms expecting the customer to be unable to pay the loan off any time soon. Even better if they come back for more loans because that's more profit. Fail to pay, and you can expect daily reminder calls which may or may not include threats.
Im not sure how true this is, in all situation. Ya, im sure the mugshots are available online. But i know lots of people that have had mugshots in the past. Some with lots of mugshots. None of them come up immediately when i google them. Some i can't find at all.
That's just Murica being Murica. No surprise here.
This is great! Thank you!
why can you even get mugshots in america? that is a police problem not a internet thing.
Those rivers though
it's a good thing i have the same name as the voice of fred flintstone
Fucked up system over there
Wouldn't not having current contact info be a violation of ICANN rules? Is there a workaround there?
This is like softcore revenge porn.
I have not been in the job market for a couple of years, so take the following with a grain of salt. I have been in Management/hiring numerous times, I would never use something or could use something such as Google or any other search engine to obtain information for an employee. Also, most application processes ask if the applier has been charged with a felony, so why would a mug shot be that surprising. A mug shot without a felony charge would not matter, I guess should not matter. However we go back to the point of: What kind of real business would rely on a search engine for results? Wouldn't a simple background check, which most businesses do to each employee, tell any information about the employee....so the mugshot (once again) would not be surprising and all the information needed would be available. So are these websites really just preying on the fear of those whom have the mugshots out there....so shouldn't we just educate people to what businesses really do instead of adding onto the fear of having a mug shot out there?
