    Eric Michael Kelso

    His parents really named him after That 70s Show?

    Donna Reid Kelso

    And then he went out of his way to find a girl named Donna to fulfill his nominative determinism‽

    Edit: The man is 44! Unless there was a legal name change at some point, his name predates the show. Wild.

      Are we not gonna talk about Kelso’s mug shot? The man’s eyes are so close together that he’s singlehandedly the best evidence I’ve ever seen that humans are descended from cyclopes

      Honestly, my initial guess was that the department used a fake name to refer to the officer. Because it’s giving big “the hardest part of making a new character is thinking of a name” vibes.

      They had to have changed their names. 5 names for 2 people all just happen to be associated with the show?
