Rick Perry Selling Shirts of His Own Mugshot

For Rick Perry, there's no such thing as bad publicity, especially considering he's using his mugshot for fundraising to sell t-shirts. Perry has been indicted on charges of abuse of power and coercion of a public servant, and now that famous mugshot, with the eight-time governor smirking into the police camera, will be part of a "wanted" t-shirt that'll help make him money for his potential 2016 presidential campaign. 

As ABCNews reports: "RickPAC is selling t-shirts bearing the mugshots of Perry and Rosemary Lehmberg, the Travis County District Attorney at the center of the governor's indictment." Perry turned himself in to the Travis County Sheriffs Office so authorities could take his booking picture on Aug. 19. 

The shirts are available by supporting RickPAC with a $25 donation.

Perry has pleaded not guilty to the charges. The t-shirt, which is being used by the governor's Republican campaign to poke fun at Democrats and boost his presence in the public eye, shows Perry's picture with a red "WANTED" sign stamped above his image on the front, similar to the old Wild West wanted posters.

The message under Perry's image reads "For Securing the Border and Defeating Democrats," which is a nod to his long run as a Republican governor in Texas, and for his high-profile criticism of border security. 

The back of the t-shirt takes a slap at Lehmberg with a photo of her not smiling at all, with the word "GUILTY" in bold red letters. Underneath her image reads "DRIVING WHILE INTOXICATED AND PERVERSION OF JUSTICE."

Perry was indicted last week by a Texas grand jury on a pair of felony counts: abuse of official capacity, as well as coercion of a public official. The action came because of a veto threat the Texas governor made last year.

Perry, in 2013, had threatened to veto millions of funding money for Texas public integrity unit pending district attorney Lehmberg's resigned following her 2013 DWI arrest and conviction.
