The Stockton Police Department released the mugshot of Jeremy Meeks, a convicted felon, via their official Facebook page, and the "ridiculously hot" photo has caught the attention of thousands of women online.

Jeremy Meeks, 30, is set to go on trial for weapons charges. The convicted felon was arrested in Stockton, California along with three other men with his bail set at $900,000, according to The Sydney Morning Herald.

Meeks' mugshot has garnered more than 25,000 likes and nearly 7,000 comments on Facebook within just 24 hours of posting. The Stockton PD had uploaded the photo along with a note explaining their "Operation Ceasefire," in which the now-famous felon was arrested.

The note explained that the operation was launched to address the increasing number of shooting and robbery incidents in the Weston Ranch area. Surprisingly, the post attracted thousands of compliments, mostly from the female population.

One fan remarked on Meeks' "excellent bone structure" and another called him a "hot criminal." Oddly enough, the criminal charges he carried did not serve as a turnoff for some, as one woman said that a criminal record could be her common point with Meeks.

Still, some were practical enough to express their disdain for "felony rap." Many condemned his wrongdoings and encouraged him to make a good change in his life.

Several commentators have suggested using all the attention to get a Hollywood agent to pay his bail and set him up as a model or actor.

Based on the Stockton PD's Facebook page, Operation Ceasefire was a combined task implemented by various government groups, according to The Hollywood Life. The Stockton PD Gang Violence Suppression Unit, County Wide Gang Task Force, Community Response Team, FBI, and nine other organizations participated in the criminal sweep.

Jeremy Meeks is not the only person to gain instant Internet attention because of his attractive looks. Marathon runner Zeddie Little was photographed in the middle of a race and later on became an Internet meme for being a "ridiculously photogenic" runner.
