Dan Hoyt, the unwitting poster boy for public lewdness caught on camera, was arraigned in court for four counts of public lewdness yesterday. The Daily News described Hoyt as smirking, sneering, and arrogant, telling one reporter, "It's a misdemeanor," much to the disgust of Thao Nguyen who took the photograph of Hoyt being a jerk in the subway. She told the Daily News, "Perhaps his smug attitude and total lack of remorse may influence the judge's sentence? If there's ever been an example of a guy who deserves the full three-month prison sentence, he's it." Also during the trial, he "smiled and yawned through the brief hearing, and sported a self-satisfied look as he left the courthouse." Interestingly enough, his lawyer claimed Hoyt turned himself in immediately, but the DA's office reminded the court that he refused to meet with the police for a few days. The $5,000 bail was posted by Hoyt's ex-wife and co-owner of raw food restaurants Quintessence.

I'm curious as to how his co-owner of the restaurant got to be his EX-wife. Is it that she found out that he was creepy and divorced him? And if so, why is she still in business with him? The mysteries never cease.
Hopefully, we'll see that smugness fade as his two restaurants go down the crapper. Pretty soon they'll be promoting "Free Nut Meat" Night at both locations.
Let the nut meat/milk comments commence...
Hopefully Dan Hoyt won't "get off" so easily.
That first picture is a doozie
RocknRope: I wonder if they serve raw food in prison...perhaps NUT MILK?!
I know that the menu is a running joke, but this one "popped up" for me:
berry carob mousse pie
a nut crust
filled with a divinely creamy mousse
and fresh berries of the day
topped with "creme"
I swear the quotes on "creme" were alreaady there...
that restaurant is disgusting! not cause of hoyt but everybody looks SOOO ugly!!! hoyt and his wife look like their parents kicked them in the face when they were kids. How can anybody eat food prepared by hideous UGGOS?

Only a misdemeanor?? No big deal. Hey, give that man his metrocard back now!
Ladies, do not be surprised if Mr. Misdemeanor returns to your local subway train.
Asian girls dig me.
just wondering ... what do they use for fire in raw food hell?
Looks like someone tried the nut milk!

The greatest misdemeanor of ALL is, judging by the looks of it, the crappy 'food' he serves.
THAT alone should land him in Rikers for 6-12 months.
PS: The asian ccick looks doable if not for the DRacula teeth. These guys must be British.
