Murrieta Police are getting a lot of attention about the mugshots and arrest photos of suspects they're posting to their social media accounts.A California police department is getting a lot of attention about the mugshots and arrest photos of suspects they're posting to their social media accounts.
"We began publishing a weekly roundup where we started putting out booking photographs of arrests we made during the week," said Durrant."Those posts would sometimes get a little off track and focus more on the physical appearance of the suspects that we posted about versus the story and the good work our officers were doing," said Durrant.
However, there are some departments that still post photographs of suspects on their social media accounts. "If an officer is at the station, or at a scene, and we get over there and take our own photos of them in handcuffs, sitting on a curb, or something like that; it's not a booking photo, according to the law," explained Railsback.
