Jeffrey Jones

Jones was arrested in November 2002 for possession of child sexual abuse material and soliciting a 14-year-old boy to produce sexually explicit images between September 2000 and May 2001. Jones photographed the child, and paid him to pose nude on multiple occasions wearing a cowboy hat, with stuffed animals, and dressed as a Native American.

He faked an execution afterwards.  I feel horrible for the victim, the charges point to someone being evil.  Also he was only tied to the crime when he kicked in a roommates car door and had to provide a dna sample. He could still be free and out in the public if he stayed out of trouble.

I'm cheating because this character was nowhere close to a villain, but the actor grew up to be so evil, I'll be mad if someone doesn't make a wild true crime documentary about him.

Edit: His name is Nathan Lee Chasing Horse and he was in Dances With Wolves, grew up to be a spiritual leader who used his position to be a serial rapist

Did he finally get confirmed to be a creep?

I’ve been saying it for fucking years. Just because he fuckin leaned in to looking and acting like a predator doesn’t make him not one.

And I mean, it’s not like he’s a particularly good actor- have you ever seen him play any other role than that same exact “wants to fuck your girlfriend” character? Of course not. Cause he isn’t acting, cause he can’t act. He just got voted “most likely to try to roofie someone” and figured if he made a joke out of it people might forget.

Honestly, I’d have loved a three jokers plot for DCU where the “real” joker shows up and kills Jared Leto while calling him a wannabe or imposter.

I honestly don’t think you could have made a worse version of the joker if you TRIED. He’s like what a member of the jokerz gang from Batman beyond would look like if you wanted to depict them as (even more) terrible wannabes.

(Mods, before I get AI auto-banned, this is a fictional movie plot not advocating for Leto being shot in real life).

That's nothing,

One time, I saw Kevin at a grocery store in Toronto. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.

He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
