Does This Look Like the Face of A Taunton Man Arrested 143 Times?
MIDDLEBORO — A Taunton man who has been arraigned more than 100 times is back in jail after a short-lived stint on probation. Derek M. Lindsay, 36, of 671 County St., Apt. 3, Taunton, formerly of Middleboro, was arrested by state police on a Middleboro warrant. According to the police report, Lindsay threatened and spit in the face of a young woman who was walking in downtown Middleboro on June 4. Sgt. Robert Ferreira saw Lindsay threatening the woman and called for backup. Lindsay taunted Ferreira, saying there was no cell coverage at that location, but he was mistaken and police were on their way, according to a police report. Ferreira reported Lindsay fled down a side street. Lindsay was arraigned for the 142nd time in March, after he was accused of stabbing a man in a downtown tattoo parlor on March 17. Lindsay has faced a variety of charges over the years, including attempted murder, assault and battery, drug offenses, weapons violations, threats and disorderly conduct, court records indicate. Lindsay made national news in May 2007 after squaring off with other parents, and later police, at a McDonald’s playground in Taunton, after he urged his child to push other kids out of the way to get closer to Ronald McDonald and Shrek clowns making balloon animals.
Oh man. Just mentioning the name Derek Lindsay brings up bad gambling memories for me.. Last time we talked about this guy was way back on May 29 2007. After that blog Vegas put the total on how many days before we’d mention him again at 34 days and a hook. I took my entire life savings and put it on the under. I thought it was the mortal lock of the century. Well it’s been 761 days since then which makes that the worst bet I’ve ever placed in my life. Just a total blowout. I still can’t believe this guy was able to stay out of the news for 2 years. Quite a run indeed. He must have only been only committing crimes in areas with bad cell phone reception or something so nobody could report it. Smart move I guess. Just goes to show there is no such thing as a sure thing anymore.
This guy’s been to jail so much he takes the fucking mugshot himself.
Friggin cops … always trying to bring down the white man.

^^just laughed out loud.
I can already see the Thanksgiving dinner fights where he gets drunk and accuses his son of not living up to the standards that he tried to set for him that one afternoon at the McDonalds playground.
I hear state legislators and prosecutors were thinking of cracking down with a new “zero-tolerance 143 strikes and you’re out” policy.
At least he’s rockin’ the Heinshon shirt
if this schmuck started getting arrested when he was born he averaged almost 4 arrests a year.

Recipe for making white trash
Add:
1 part Celtics shirt (for caucasians Celtics shirt preferred)
1 part third grade hair cut.
Add tattoos (preferably around highly visible areas such as neck which guarantees no shot at real job).
Damn – he’s younger than I am but looks my dad’s age….
