Mug Shot is to Humiliate

Trump Lawyer Opposes Release of Mugshot: ‘It’s Not Going to Help Anything’

After his indictment for alleged hush money payments, Trump is expected to surrender himself to the Manhattan district attorney’s office on today for processing, when he will be fingerprinted, photographed, and read his Miranda rights. The arraignment hearing is then scheduled for 2:15 p.m. at the New York County Supreme Court.

When asked if there should be cameras in the courtroom during Trump’s trial, one of the former president’s attorneys, Alina Habba, stated that she is not against the notion.

Habba, who has represented Trump on other issues, stated that the former president’s mugshot should remain confidential because he is running for president in 2024.

Mugshots are for people so that you recognize who they are. He is the most recognized face in the world, let alone the country right now, so there’s no need for that. There’s no need for the theatrics,” she said.
