　　本周，杰里米·米克斯由于涉嫌武器重罪被捕入狱，他的入狱照十分有明星范儿，令他在网络上迅速蹿红，直至周六晚上该照片已在Facebook上得到了超过89,000个“赞”。

　　The 30-year-old career criminal has become an object of lust² for women the world over who took to Facebook and Twitter lavishing³ praise on his high cheekbones, full lips and piercing blue eyes.

　　这名30岁的职业罪犯俘获了全世界女性的芳心，在Facebook和Twitter上网友称赞米克斯有着高高的颧骨、丰满的嘴唇和炯炯有神的眼睛。

　　But Meeks’ spouse⁴ and the mother of his 3-year-old son is not amused by the collective swooning over her photogenic husband.

　　但米克斯的妻子，同时也是他3岁儿子的母亲，对于获得了大量赞美的上相的丈夫却一点儿也高兴不起来。

　　‘She's furious,’ Meeks' friend Simone Johnson said.

　　“她很生气，”米克斯的朋友赛蒙·约翰逊说道。

　　‘Her man is in there and people are taking it as a joke, thinking it’s funny talking about his looks.’

　　“她的丈夫在监狱里，人们却拿这事当作一个笑话，觉得谈论他的外貌很有趣。”

　　Officer Joseph Silva, a spokesman for the Stockton Police Department, which sparked the mugshot craze Wednesday after sharing Meeks' booking photo on its Facebook page, was surprise by the worldwide attention.

　　周三，斯托克顿市警察局的发言人约瑟夫·席尔瓦警官将米克斯的入狱照上传至警局的Facebook主页，随后引发的入狱照热潮令席尔瓦警官感到非常地惊讶。

　　‘I have not seen that many likes for a photo before,’ he said.

　　“我从来没有看到过得到这么多赞的照片，” 他如是说。

　　Silva called Meeks ‘one of the most violent criminals in the Stockton area,’ though he would not elaborate on the crimes that Meeks is believed to have committed.

　　虽然他不愿意详细说明米克斯涉嫌的犯罪情况，但席尔瓦警官称米克斯是“斯托克顿地区最狂暴的犯罪分子之一”。

　　'It's been a long term investigation⁵ over many weeks and Mr Meek's gang was identified as the most violent and active gang in the area,' Public Information Officer Silva told MailOnline. 'Two of his charges are gang related.'

　　“这起案件经过了长达几周的调查，最后米克斯的犯罪团伙被确定为是这个地区内最暴力最活跃的犯罪团伙。”公众信息官员席尔瓦警官向每日邮报网站透露道。“他面临的两项指控都与团伙作案相关。”

　　Despite this extensive rap sheet and his part in local gangs, Meeks and his family still insist that he is not involved in criminal activity.

　　尽管他有着大量的前科、参与了当地的犯罪团伙，米克斯和他的家人还是坚称他并没有参与犯罪活动。

　　His mother, Katherine Angier, has insisted that her son is innocent and has even set up a GoFundMe page to raise $25,000 to get him a fair trial.

　　他的母亲，凯瑟琳·安吉尔坚称她的儿子是无辜的，她还成立了一个GoFundMe的网页用来筹集25,000美元使他的儿子能得到公平的审判。

　　Angier apparently⁶ has been in trouble with the law for offenses⁷ including drugs, aiding and abetting⁸ a criminal, according to records.

　　根据记录显示，安吉尔也一直因为触犯法律而惹出一身麻烦，她涉嫌吸毒、协助并教唆犯罪。

　　The sordid⁹ suggestions also continue to appear on the Stockton police's Facebook page, where the felon's photo was liked more 20,000 times in less than 24 hours.

　　一些不堪入目的建议继续出现在斯托克顿警察局的Facebook官方页面上，也是在这里，这名重罪罪犯的照片在短短的24个小时内得到了超过两万个“赞”。

　　'He needs to be a model,' wrote Bettina Jones. 'I would buy whatever he's selling!'

　　“他得成为一个模特才行，” 贝蒂娜·琼斯写道。“他卖的东西我都会买的！”

　　Meeks was charged with illegally possessing firearms and ammo, carrying a loaded firearm in public and criminal street gang activity.

　　米克斯被指控违法持有军火武器和弹药，在公共场所以及团伙犯罪活动中携带装有子弹的武器。

　　The repeat offender¹⁰ is being held on $900,000 bail¹¹, but perhaps not for long. There's talk amongst the commenters of raising the funds to set him free.

　　这名惯犯的保释金为90万美元，但是也许离保释这一天不远了。在网友中间已经有人在讨论筹钱让米克斯重获自由。

　　But not everyone's a fan.

　　但并不是每个人都是他的粉丝。

　　'$900,000 in bail and 6 felonies,' Amber¹² Gomes wrote. 'You ladies are desperate.'

　　“90万美元的保释金和6项重罪，”安布尔·戈梅斯写道。“你们女人真是无药可救。”
