A tattoo belonging to a man from Derbyshire has appeared in a US government document used to identify members of Tren de Aragua, a notorious Venezuelan gang, despite the man having no connection to the group.
The tattoo is of a clock, and other tattoos listed as evidence of gang membership include mistranslated text and Chicago Bulls fandom tattoos.
Various depictions of clocks are common in prison tattoos, for obvious reasons, but that doesn’t mean all clock tattoos are prison tattoos. I have seen gang tattoos that were depictions of a woman with a pistol or a woman swinging on an inverted carpenter’s hammer.
I’m a tattoo artist and SOOOOOOOOO many parents get a clock for every damn kid and set the hands to the time or even date the kid was born.
