Joe Francis is having a really bad week. First he was arrested on Tuesday for criminal contempt, then on Wednesday he was indicted for tax evasion, and now he’s being charged with bribing a jail guard and possessing prescription medications in his cell.

According to court records in Florida, Francis offered the guard $100 for a bottle of water on Wednesday evening. When guard turned him down, Francis showed him $500, investigators said. Jail inmates are not allowed to have cash. Supervisors then searched Francis’s cell and discovered 16 prescription medications, including Lunesta – a sleeping pill – and the anti-anxiety medication lorazepam, court records show … He wept as his mother blew him a kiss as he was led from a federal court room back to his cell.

That has to be the saddest bribe in the history of bribes. $500 for a bottle of water? Other prisoners are trying to score drugs and weapons, and this guy wants a bottle of water. He might as well put flowers in his hair and wear a sign on his back that says ‘Insert Here’ with an arrow pointing down.

    So you’re not allowed to have water, sleeping pills or cash in jail, huh? Are you allowed to make carbon dioxide or is there more penalties for that?

    #33, his tears were probably tears of joy. He was probably over joyed to the point of tears that he could go back and be spike’s bitch.

  7. Anyone feel like flooding EVERY story about this with the word “rapist” 100 times over? I’m thoroughly tempted.
