Description

The First Edition was published in February 2024.

In 2015, Josh Jeffery launched @mugshawtys, a platform dedicated to showcasing archived American female mugshots along with details of their crimes in the caption. This initiative extends across Twitter and Instagram, with daily updates.

Over the years, Mugshawtys has not only curated a compelling archive but its community has also actively contributed to bailing out multiple girls caught in legal entanglements.

Now, the Mugshawtys book, edited and designed by Pouria Khojastehpay and featuring an introduction by casting director Jennifer Venditti of JV8INC – renowned for her work on projects like Euphoria, Uncut Gems, and more – stands as the inaugural and official publication of this widely popular social media account, serving as a testament to its impact and influence.
