JOSHUA WALTER PHOTOS: Hugo Boss Model Arrested In NYC Crime Spree

The NY Post reports that the 20-year-old Hugo Boss model who first stepped into the spotlight for shacking up at age 17 with 37-year-old second grade teacher Gina Salamino, was arrested Thursday morning for his involvement in a New York City crime spree. Joshua Walter and his three cronies have confessed to the robbery of 15 gas stations and delis and the theft of $12,000-$15,000.

The spree began June 14 and ended on Sunday at a Dunkin' Donuts on Horace Harding Expressway, where Walter allegedly pistol-whipped one of the victims, sources said.

The crime spree include gas stations, a 7-11, bodegas, and fruit and vegetable stands around Queens and Brooklyn. The four were charged with robbery and criminal possession of a firearm.

Walter took up with Salamino when he was a 17-year-old high school student. She subsequently lost her job because he was a minor.

When Department of Education investigators questioned Walter about Salamino, he said, "I'm tapping that ass and there's nothing you can do about it."

He said he considered the older woman "my shorty."

The couple still lives together in Queens.

Not half as bad as some of the Hugo Boss franchisees, namely in Montreal and Toronto. Drugs, escorts and espionnage.

This is what happens when a child is s.exually a.bused.

Did you know he has a child with the teacher? She looks. . . well let's just say "very homely". People don't really get how this messes with some boys heads. They think it's funny. Now he's gonna be someone else's "shorty" for a long time.

yummm...sexy AND daring. My type of guy.

[NoSillyName]

He sounds like an @ss. Not even attractive. "My shorty", thought he was talking about something else.

So young and so much promise..."Whom the gods would destroy, they first make mad."

Montecarlo408 I think your full of shi%. I did time in Elimira New York and Rahway in New Jersey and saw it happened once out of 8.5 years in both places. Prison rape is not what it was in the earlier years. It just doesn't happen like people are led to believe.

I completely reject the notion that somehow as a male model Joshua Walters , perhaps making less than female models, or being laid off to a recession somehow compelled this privileged young man to terrorize and steal from good people, fruit vendors and unlucky people who were just trying to buy a donut; good people who had their graduation watch and rent money stolen.
Lets not forget being pistol whipped in the process.
Evil.
This young man travelled to Paris and Milan, all expenses paid to strut on a walkway wearing fabulous designer fashions, and posed before some of the worlds great photographers to have their picture taken.
With all this opportunity, instead of doing something positive he stole from and terrorized good people.

There is no excuse at all for that, and it is not funny or a joke; It is horrible.

I dressed this guy during Fashion Week! Craziness. He seemed like he was "Fly for a White Guy" (thanks, Offspring!), but he was cool, otherwise. Little do you know, right?

I guess professional modeling doesn't make as much as I thought.

lay-offs?
