"Like something out of a Quentin Tarantino movie"

Gardne1

Turk Mccabe1

These three men are accused of kidnapping one of their girlfriends, beating her up and dumping her in Mexico, police in Lake Elsinore, Calif., said. (She was reportedly something of a nag.)

Instead of disappearing forever, she took a $300 cab ride back from the border and, when she got home, forced her lovah -- Donald Darcy Turk, lower left -- to write a check to the cabbie, police reported. Then he went to his ex-wife's house to attend a birthday party for one of his kids. The next day, the girlfriend reported him to police.

The men have pleaded not guilty; they said they were all hanging out in Mexico, drinking at the beach, and just left the woman there.

Turk's associates include Robert Paul McCabe, lower right, and Robert Wayne Gardner, top, nicknamed "No Nose" because of a gun accident several years ago.

(I also liked this comment from poster Seuss On The Loose: "You could put his face on one of those anti-inspirational posters and say something like, 'This is your nose. This is your nose to the grindstone.  Any questions?'")

Mega-Hat-Tip: Many thanks, You're A Mean Drunk R2D2!

"No Nose" is a dead ringer for "The Grinch."

I keep telling myself.. dont stare .. dont stare.. dont stare.. then I realize he cant see me... and I keep staring again... no, still cannot believe what I am seeing..
They took this guy drinking in mexico?

ACK! Tell Cat Ballou, Silvernose lives!

They had to call the "Mobile Armored Special Kommand" to arrest these guys.

It seems "No Nose" is worse at picking his friends than...oh, nevermind!

WOW, that's cruel - enlarged picture of him and it wasn't even his girlfriend :-0

Searching - I'm with you, I just can't stop staring.

One really wonders what the "gun accident" was that made this guy lose his nose and lips.

You have to wonder what it's like when this guy sneezes - I mean, I've seen whales blow water out their snouts, but they're in the water...

Good point BF - what is it like for him to sneeze.

Looking at that reminds me I need to hang some pictures.

That nose piece looks like a drywall screw anchor.

Aqua, he's like Mr Potatoehead and he can put on clever noses to fit his mood.

Someone needs to get on eBay and buy a prosthetic nose.

What?? He can't afford a fake nose?? Seems like if he stopped all the drinking in Mexico he could get one. I thought everything was like super cheap in Mexico. Heck while he's there visiting, why don't he get a new nose for cheap???

OK, who's whistling in here? Oh wait, it's his nose, he doesn't have any lips. LOL!

One really wonders what the "gun accident" was that made this guy lose his nose and lips. - BF

No big deal really. He's just one of them guys that will shoot off his nose to spite his face.

My mom always said I was doing that, but I never looked this bad on my worst day lol.

Clever one Nick and Rhonda.

Thank you Savoyee.

Rhonda, that is because girls already know that silicone is a girls best friend. Best dude could do is a dry wall socket or a penis implant.

Thanks to everyone for making me laugh out loud!! Darts anyone?

You can tell he isn't into fashion. I would so get that in different colors to match the season, holiday, favorite sports team, etc. Who "nose" it might even become a topic of discussion to help him pick up chicks. (yeah..I know.... I'm going to hell for this)

"No Nose" is so uncreative for a nickname. Surely someone could do better. How about "Pinocchio?" Or maybe "Cyrano?"

"Nofactory"
"Lacksnout"
"Bloodhound"
"Snotty"

You could put his face on one of those anti-inspirational posters and say something like, "This is your nose. This is your nose to the grindstone. Any questions?"

Man. This whole incident is just one of those "no no's."

seuss on the loose - LOL - "Snotty"!

the Seuss is loose--- You're right! I didn't even think about it that way... Anyway, must have been a hell of a gun shot accident...

Looks an awful lot lika a girl I used to date in college back in the 60's. lol

Who sez life art initates life!

That noseless guy would be the ultimate wingman, though. Stand next to him and you're friggin' Brad Pitt.

Is that crazyass hair supposed to distract us from the fact that something is missing?

It took me a while. I was thinking, hmm, he has a little red nose, like a reindeer.

Maybe that's the point.

why is no nose's picture the most enlarged?....geez

So when he sneezes, does it, like, pop out or call dogs?

What doctor sticks a plastic plug in place of a nose and says, "There you go. All set!" This picture is so disturbing. I can't believe his nose or lack there of!!!

Looks like a drywall mount for wood screws. Folks, if this is you, get a better HMO.

Fun 3 somes with that guy.

The suspect, who was identified as Robert Wayne Gardner, 44 years, Corona resident, was in the process of re-renting a U-Haul truck when he pointed the rifle at an employee from U-Haul. Gardner was inside the cargo area of the truck at the time of the incident.
