Why are some people so happy in their mug shot? Are they planning to use it for political clout?
That's the face of 0 consequences lol
The turned the lights on so bright that one guy had to squint, makes him look like he's smiling.
"We have ways of making you smile..." -- The police mugshot guy probably
It is generally a psychological tactic to make you publicly seem innocent. The typical resting-face mugshot make people not seem as friendly, and therefore guilty.
The issue is when it comes to trial it does the exact opposite. I've heard time and time again to be nothing but stoic if you ever get booked because the prosecution will claim you smiling in your mugshot shows you have no remorse.
Absolutely. This is 100% a political prosecution of political opponents of the those in power. As such, it will be a rallying point for those who oppose this abuse of power.
