I'm curious about that too actually- I suppose from their view it's a safety thing for the officers- which, IMO, is reasonable. Police probably aren't the most popular people in prison, and posting a picture of their face doesn't help.

Should your job make you immune from some of the prescribed legal degradations that go along with being in jail? I mean, I'm sure the corrections officers make sure that some of the inmates know exactly what new inmates are in there for. Why isn't turnabout fair play here? I can see "corrections officer" mugshot not shown for the "safety thing", but why "fireman"?

This a booking photo not a cell assignment. Should be public if the others are.

I actually think the pics should not be public until after conviction for all.
