What Some of the Most Common Prison Tattoos Really Mean (15 pics)
Three dots
The three dots tattoo is a common prison tattoo that represents “mi vida loca,” or “my crazy life.” It’s not associated with any particular gang, but with the gang lifestyle itself. This tattoo is typically found on the hands or around the eyes. It can also carry some religious significance, such as representing Christianity’s holy trinity. The three dot tattoo is often created using a stick-and-poke method, requiring very rudimentary tools.
Five dots
These dots differ greatly from the previous tattoo – five dots represents time done in prison. Also known as the quincunx, the four dots on the outside represent four walls, with the fifth on the inside representing the prisoner. This tattoo can be found internationally, among both American and European inmates. The dots are typically found on an inmate’s hand, between the thumb and forefinger.
A Crown with 5 Points
The crown is a symbol of the Latin Kings, which is one of the largest gangs in the US.
1488
This number can be found on white supremacist/Nazi inmates. The numbers 14 or 88 on their own can also be used, which sometimes creates confusion. Fourteen represents fourteen words, which are a quote by Nazi leader David Lane: “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for White Children.” The 88 is shorthand for the 8th letter of the alphabet twice, HH, which represents Heil Hitler. Typically, these tattoos can be found anywhere on the body.
Cobweb Tattoos
While these tattoos are mainstream (ish), they are still prison tattoos. They represent a lengthy prison sentence. The spider trapping prey is supposed to symbolize prisoners being trapped behind bars.
Aryan Brotherhood
This prison gang has a variety of tattoos to look out for, ranging from ‘AB’ to Nazi symbols like a swastika or SS bolts. The Brotherhood makes up 1 percent of the inmate population, but are responsible for 20 percent of murders inside of U.S. prisons, so identifying these tattoos are extremely beneficial.
MS 13
The MS 13, also sometimes seen just as MS or 13, is a symbol of the Mara Salvatrucha gang from El Salvador. Typically these tattoos can be found anywhere on the body, but are most often found in highly visible places like the face, hands or neck.
A.C.A.B.
This acronym is commonly found on the bodies of British prisoners and stands for “All Cops Are Bastards.” Some claim that A.C.A.B. also stands for “Always Carry A Bible,” but these are widely believed to be people who regret their tattoo decision. Often found on the knuckles, the tattoo symbolizes a willingness to go to prison for your crew or gang.
Norteño
Norteño tattoos represent the Nuestra Familia gang, which is associated with Hispanic gangs in Northern California. Their tattoos include the word Norteño, Nuestra Familia, a sombrero symbol, the letter N or the number 14, symbolizing the 14th letter of the alphabet (yup – the letter N).
Cross on the chest
Particularly found in Russian prisons, chest tattoos symbolize a ‘Prince of Thieves.’ This is the highest rank a Russian convict can achieve, and are generally worn by higher-ups in the mob. Russian prisons have a unique and intricate history of prison tattoos, each with their own unique meaning. Another example are bells, symbolizing freedom, or a tiger on the chest is symbolic of aggression toward the police.
La Eme
‘La Eme,’ or The M, is the symbol of the Mexican Mafia. They are one of the largest and most ruthless prison gangs in the U.S. They’re allied with the Aryan Brotherhood, and have a common enemy in the Nuestra Familia.
Tears
In certain places the teardrop represents a long prison sentence, in others it represents that the inmate is a murderer.
EWMN
These letters stand for ‘Evil, Wicked, Mean, Nasty.’ Having no particular affiliation with any gang, they simply represent the general disposition of some prison inmates. Typically found on the knuckles, these types of tattoos were popularized in 1955 by Robert Mitchum in ‘The Night of the Hunter.’ His sociopathic preacher character had the words ‘love’ and ‘hate’ tattooed on the knuckles of each hand, which has brought about other variants such as ‘Rock/Roll’ and ‘Stay/Down.’
Playing cards
Playing cards, or suits of the deck in general, usually indicate an inmate who likes to gamble. This applies to gambling games both within prison and without; it can also represent a person who generally views life as a gamble. This tattoo is very popular in Russian prisons, where each deck has its own meaning. A spade represents a thief; clubs symbolize criminals in general. Diamonds are reserved for stoolpigeons and informants – if the cards have this deck, then it was likely applied with force. Hearts imply that someone is looking for a romantic partner in the prison, which may also be forcibly applied.
The clock with no hands
This tattoo is, fairly obviously, representative of ‘doing time’ and doing a lot of it. Those serving a longer sentence might get this tattoo done on their wrist, with watch straps and all, much like a real watch. The clock face itself can come in a few forms, such as the face of a wall clock or a grandfather clock. Not all clock tattoos are tied to prison; generally just the ones lacking hands.

10 Dessert Recipes Alcohol Lovers Shouldn’t Miss
I know many a drinker who skips dessert. Our favorite cocktails, martinis, wines, and beers can be a dessert in and of themselves. But alcohol is versatile, and alcohol lovers can eat their cake and drink it too with desserts that employ alcohol among the ingredients.
If you’re not much of a drinker, have no fear — these recipes won’t exactly throw you off the wagon. Or, if you do drink and are looking for a creative way to use your favorite beverage in your favorite meal of the day, this list is your answer.
1. Raspberry Lambic Sorbet
This is an easy recipe that yields delightfully creamy results. If you like the sweet-and-tart combo, raspberry sorbet is where it’s at, and the Framboise Lambic adds a complementary bite. By itself, Raspberry Lambic makes for a superbly crisp accompaniment to a hearty holiday feast.
2. Chocolate-Pinot Noir Fondue
As Paul Giamatti says in the movie Sideways, “Only somebody who really takes the time to understand Pinot’s potential can then coax it into its fullest expression.” Pinot noir really amps up the flavor of chocolate fondue, and what do you know, there’s espresso powder in here, too. Wine, chocolate, espresso — are there many better things? Try dipping sea-salted pretzels to provide a savory balance. A votre sante!
3. Rummy Tiramisu
No dessert list is complete without tiramisu, the classic Italian favorite. This recipe incorporates vanilla rum in the mix, and it’s about as healthy as tiramisu gets, with organic, made-from-scratch ingredients. The recipe emphasizes the healthy factor, and calls for Stevia instead of sugar. Enjoy with a cup of after-dinner coffee, and savor the rich, creamy-melty flavor. Saluti!
4. Chocolate Stout Cake
You can use any kind of stout beer for this recipe, not just Guiness. Stouts have less carbonation than lagers or ales, and the bubbles are a leavening agent, which means less baking soda in the recipe than you’ll find in other chocolate cakes. Breads and cakes made with beer prove to be nicely moist; this cake proves to be no exception, and is both rich and sweet.
5. Bananas Foster
Rum’s the word in this saucy, delicious banana concoction. One adherent to Bananas Foster dessert recommends I light the mixture on fire once the bananas are added to the sauce. It’s a unique recommendation. There’s plenty of room for variation and experimentation, but the simple and tested recipe won’t fail on the first go.
6. Red Wine-Poached Rhubarb
From award-winning chef and author David Lebovitz comes this adaptation of a simple French recipe. You don’t have to be a fan of rhubarb, because the careful selection of ingredients work with the rhubarb to impart their flavor, transforming the tartness to something else entirely. You can use any bottle of fruity red wine. Let it sit overnight for best results.
7. Amarula Chocolate Covered Strawberries
Looking for something exotic? Amarula Cream liqueur is made from the fruit of the South African marula tree. It’s a decadent, heady liqueur, and the strawberries provide just the right contrast with their brightness. This takes chocolate-covered strawberries on a trip par excellence.
8. Margarita Cupcakes
Surprise! You can enjoy Triple Sec and tequila without getting overly emotional or passing out on the kitchen floor. The perfect addition to your next piñata party. Just don’t bring these cupcakes to your kids’ next elementary school birthday celebration. Aclamaciones!
9. Bourbon Marshmallow S’mores
Everybody gather round the campfire. But don’t fall in because you drank the leftover bourbon for the marshmallows in this adult take on the classic s’more. If bourbon’s not your thing, you can also use a good stout beer. Either way, you’ll definitely be wanting some, uh, more. And, alcoholic s’mores will give you the perfect excuse to pontificate about how the word s’more was probably coined by a tipsy camper — which makes the addition of booze here extremely appropriate.
10. White Russian Pudding Parfaits
Big Lebowski theme-party, anybody? The White Russian cocktail is a vodka, Kahlua, and half-and-half composition. Now, you can tell your guests the proof is in the pudding without being ashamed of spouting a cliché. Nostrovia!
