Remember those two killers who escaped prison Shawshank Redemption-style? The authorities have released some photos of identifying markers on the fugitives’ bodies, and we’ve stumbled across another case of low-key stolen valor.

This is the arm of one Richard Matt, a man convicted of dismembering his boss and dumping the remains in the Niagara River. Despite the EGA tattoo, this is not the arm of a Marine or military veteran.

The Marine Corps has already confirmed that Matt has never served or enlisted. Marines everywhere can exhale a breath of relief that this psycho is not a member of their ranks.

But why does this fugitive have a fake Marine tattoo? Gawker has a few guesses.

His fake Marine tattoo may help explain why, as one ex-cop who put him away says it, “He gets girlfriends any place he goes.” Add stolen valor to the list of this fugitive’s crimes.

Matt and his accomplice David Sweat are still at large. New York is offering a $100,000 bounty for information leading to the arrest of these men.
