That must be his brother visiting him in prison. I guess he would not do the face tattoo if he was ever going to leave prison again.

^ I see people with face tattoos on the subway or on the street all the time. It's not just a prison thing.

^ i think flowdesigner is on to something... note the big 13 on his face (besides the others). Thats not just some tat one decides to throw on their face randomly. thats intentional and its a flag.

13=13th letter of the alphabet=M=meth or sometimes marijuana, typically means he was a user/producer. Hooray for old episodes of drug inc.

nope, 13 is a code for a certain gang.
I had to look up the name but it's Mara Salvatrucha

^ you're headed in the direction that I was implying. That dude is throwing up a sign. Sad part (for him) is, how ever proud he may have been to put it on his face... if he changes his mind about life later it could be the death of him. Having that on his face doesn't just say "i really dig this" it says i live this, i am this. Which means he better say/do the things that wearing a badge like that calls for... which brings us back to flowdesigner's original assessment of 'never leaving prison again'.
