An American lawyer has used his arrest as a great marketing opportunity, passing on his details to other inmates.
However, the 61-year-old was charged with harassment, obstructing government administration and resisting arrest, and brought into custody.
Far from bemoaning his bad luck or wondering if this would ruin his career, Perry saw this as a marketing opportunity.
