When Joe first went into lock down we asked him to get advice from those who’ve gone before him. We almost begged Joe to ask himself What Would Tookie Williams Do when he found himself in a “sticky situation”.

Well apparently Joe enjoys life in the Nevada State Penal System.

He’s free on bail in Nevada, but pimpresario Joe Francis is voluntarily keeping himself behind bars in a Reno jail — so he won’t have to face another round of charges in Florida.

Francis’ lawyer, David Houston, tells TMZ that the “Girls Gone Wild” ogler-in-chief is veering between “elated” and “disappointed” as he sits in a cell in the Washoe County Detention Center in Reno, Nev. That’s because a judge in Bay County, Fla., where Francis faces charges of sexual performance with a minor (among other things), revoked Joe’s bail at a hearing yesterday afternoon — meaning that if he sets foot outside his current jail, he’ll be picked up by Nevada cops — who would probably then extradite him down south. On Monday, a federal judge in Reno set his bail at $1.5 million in his tax evasion case, meaning that he could’ve walked, were it not for Florida.

This means that at least until late July, Francis will have to hang out at the jail…”

Maybe by the time Joe gets locked up in Florida the sunshine state will have followed California’s lead and his Reno sweetheart can stop in an “visit” for a while.
