Ugly people more likely to end up in jail?
Why do people expect criminals to be ugly and get shocked when they see someone that's good-looking go to jail?
Do you think ugly people are more likely to be criminals?
Is it because good looking people are more easily assimilated into society than ugly people are and so they do it for attention?
Is it because they are treated worse and so are more likely to lash out?
EDIT: Basically do we just expect criminals to be unattractive or are unattractive people more likely o commit crime?

2 main types of jurors - emotional (looks play a part) and rational (proceed logically)
everyone is capable of using both systems and which one depends on natural predisposition (minor crimes are less likely to be affected by emotional stuff)

My point is she's not pretty or remotely good looking. Her nose is cute though. She looks pretty vacant behind the eyes like I said.

So people do expect criminals to be ugly?
If you had to draw a criminal would they be unattractive or scary looking?

You're not ugly and I'm not saying ugly people should be in prison.
I'm asking whether we just expect criminals to be ugly or whether ugly people are more likely to commit crime...

But every look is attractive to at least 10 thousand people, as there are 7 billion people on earth, none is truly 'unattractive' dude, so there are no unattractive prisoners
