An Oregon man’s criminal history has been documented in a series of mugshots dating back to 2002, when he was just 18 years old.

Matthew Medlin’s most recent mugshot came after he was involved in a four-hour standoff with Portland police during which he reportedly injected himself with methamphetamine.

The Multnomah County Sheriff's Office supplied over a dozen mugshots of Medlin which illustrate the past 14 years of his life and the apparent toll that crime has taken on him. He now sports facial tattoos, including large eyebrows and streams of tears. In one mugshot he’s wearing what appears to be war paint over the tattoos.

He also picked up a sex offender conviction along the way in 2013.

This most recent incident, according to Portland’s KPTV, centered on Medlin hiding in a rail car from police for four hours and refusing to come out. He threw rocks and glass at police to keep them at bay. He had a felony arrest warrant related to a parole violation.

During this period, officers told reporters that he injected himself with meth and told them at one point he had been awake for 26 hours. He was finally taken into custody with the aid of non-lethal rounds and a Taser and taken to an area hospital for treatment. He was later released to the Multnomah County Sheriff's Office.

He faces a number of charges relating back to the standoff, including criminal trespass and resisting arrest.

Back in 2014, Medlin first got on the media’s radar for an incident at a Jack in the Box location. He was found there after escaping a nearby correctional institute.

Update: Matthew Medlin is currently at the Oregon main psychiatric hospital and is reportedly signing up for classes, including on how to deal with cognitive mental illness and legal defense.

"It's kinda cool that I'm being glorified a little bit," he said of his mugshots.
