Liberal Director Quentin Tarantino Caught Lying About Going to Jail

Quentin Tarantino has enjoyed making up stories about being jailed as a way to make himself seem grittier. The only problem is, he never actually went to jail.

Film director Quentin Tarantino has for years told the story of how he was jailed for eight days for unpaid traffic tickets, but the New York Post says a search of Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department records finds no proof to back him up.

“A check of Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department jail records revealed no evidence that Mr. Tarantino was ever incarcerated in our jail system,” Capt. Christopher Reed of the sheriff’s office told the Post.

Tarantino first told the story as he was directing such gritty films and “Pulp Fiction” and “Natural Born Killers,” but he recently brought it up again while defending himself after calling some police officers “murderers” while speaking out against police killings at a New York City rally just days after an NYPD officer was shot to death by a suspect.

“Back when I was in my 20s and broke, I was a little scared of the cops, all right?” Tarantino said on a recent episode of “Real Time with Bill Maher.” “And oftentimes, I had warrants out on me for traffic stuff that I never took care of and everything . . . I’d get stopped, and I’d have to do eight days in county jail.”

It’s just like a liberal to glamorize going to jail, thinking that it makes them seem more hard core. It’s pretty sad and pathetic, actually, when you really think about it.
