Last week we gave the old guys. Now it's the ladies turn.
Here at the Shorewood Patch, we're all about giving equal time. And that's why we're bringing you this week's Rogues Gallery. Last week, we made it all about the older gentlemen. This time, it's for the ladies. So enjoy your trip through the Rogues Gallery. But before you do, remember — just because somebody's in jail doesn't mean he (or she) actually did anything wrong. Especially when it comes to this jail. At the same time, we'd like to point out that none of these ladies is from Shorewood. We just don't want you to get the wrong idea.

We're not saying these guys did anything wrong, but they do look old, and they went to jail.
There's some things you've come to expect from your weekly Rogues Gallery. Tattoos, ghastly injuries, beards, Lincoln, ladies. These things haven't surprised too many people. But senior citizens? What?!? To which we ask: So what's your problem? Don't be so agist. Instead, just have an open mind about things. And enjoy this week's Rogues Gallery.
