America’s ‘hot convict’ Jeremy Meeks has some stiff competition – in the form of one Sean Kory.
Dreadlocked, green-eyed Kory was arrested on Halloween for allegedly assaulting a partygoer who had dressed up as a Fox News reporter at an event in Santa Cruz.
Kory is said to have shrieked: “I hate Fox News”, grabbed the victim’s prop microphone and made an obscene gesture with it, before attacking he or she with an aluminium tennis racket, the San Jose Mercury News reports.
Sean Kory was arrested and booked into the Santa Cruz county jail on Friday
It adds the victim wasn’t injured, but called the police who arrested the 29-year-old as he tried to flee.
As the Inquisitr points out: “Clearly a conservative news anchor costume is a bold choice for a Halloween party in liberal Santa Cruz.”

Meeks, possessor of full lips, piercing blue eyes and chiselled cheekbones, is of course the original ‘hot convict’ who is currently in prison awaiting trial for federal gun charges.
