      apparently DAs use it as evidence against you in court (lack of remorse) -- but that might be apocryphal.

        Isn't everyone innocent when they take those photos? Photos taken by impotent jackasses in costumes. I can't help but laugh at their dumbasses. 🏴🏴🏴🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿

            The pigs don’t care if you did it or not, they want to put you away and pad their resume by doing so.

          Yes innocent until proven guilty, I think the context for this is once one is found guilty. Hypothetically, if someone is smiling in their mugshot after having just been arrested with a bloody knife in their hand, when sentencing comes they could push for a longer sentence due to a lack of remorse. But I’m not a lawyer, just speculating.
