If you weren’t sufficiently outraged by free college education provided by Wesleyan University for prisoners serving life sentences or heart transplants for murderers on death row, consider the case of John Ditullio whose lawyer has convinced the judge that the state should pay for a cosmetologist to cover his tattoos so as not to prejudice the jurors in his upcoming trial. The Florida defendant has been in jail for four years accused of a double stabbing that wounded one victim and killed another. His first trial ended in a mistrial. During this time, he has had himself tattooed with swastikas and curses on his neck and a long scar on the right side of his face. The cosmetologist’s fee is $125 per day for as long as the trial takes.
