Man Accused Of Tattooing Kids For Stolen Goods

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) ― A Sacramento man is in jail for allegedly tattooing children as young as 11-years-old as payment for stolen property like laptops and video games, according to Sacramento police.

Police say 30-year-old Eugene Eaton gave tattoos to as many as four young kids in exchange for stolen property. A 13-year-old has also been arrested. Police say the teen has tattoos on both arms and his chest.

Neighbor's had wondered where the young boys were getting their ink. "We had seen a couple of kids with tattoos," said Eaton's neighbor Brittnae Heard. "We're like 'who is doing their tattoos so young?' because I know it's illegal."

Sacramento Police Captain Daniel Hahn says Eaton told them he didn't know the children were so young, despite the fact that the 13-year-old had his birth date tattooed on his arm.

1. This man should give up his life of crime.

He has absolutely no talent for it.
