He’s neck deep in trouble again.
Viral sensation Charles “Wideneck” Dion McDowell — who rose to internet stardom last year when Florida police tweeted out a mugshot that showed his freakishly large neck — is back behind bars for a third time in a little more than two months, officials said Thursday.
The 31-year-old, who’s capitalized on his digital fame with an Instagram account that’s garnered 1.3 million followers, was thrown back in jail Tuesday after a Pensacola judge revoked his bond for a November arrest where he was caught fleeing from police with meth and cocaine on him, Escambia County court records show.
A spokesperson for the county said they “picked him up” because he did the exact same thing two days later in Alabama, which was in violation of his original bond agreement.
He’ll now be forced to sit behind bars at least until his next court date on Feb. 21.
A post on McDowell’s Instagram Wednesday written by “management” vowed this will be the last time “Wideneck” will be behind bars.
“Charles’ life has changed for the better for himself and his family. When all this is over with this last case, you have his word that he’ll never go back to jail again!” the post read, ending with the hashtag “#freewideneck”.
