How about if your police booking photo was ripped off and used to advertise a background check website? Somebody is going to lose some money on this one, that is if they have any. 1D4, 6D, 7D2, Sony a6000 with Sony16-70, Rokinon 12mmf2, Canon lenses: 17-40L, 17-55 f2.8, 10-22, 50mm 1.4, 85mm 1.8, 70-200mm IS 2.8, 300mm 2.8 IS, 580EXII (3), 430EX, Alien Bees.

Mugshots are generally coincided in the public domain thus usable by anyone. If the site is using it commercially and attributing it to a crime she was not arrested for, some other law might come into play but I think they have the right to use the photo. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

Mug shots are public record, and I guess we'll find out if they can be used for advertising purposes. 1D4, 6D, 7D2, Sony a6000 with Sony16-70, Rokinon 12mmf2, Canon lenses: 17-40L, 17-55 f2.8, 10-22, 50mm 1.4, 85mm 1.8, 70-200mm IS 2.8, 300mm 2.8 IS, 580EXII (3), 430EX, Alien Bees.

That just means she was arrested, not convicted. She might have hires a shyster lawyer and gotten off. Not sure why, but call me JJ.

She might have hires a shyster lawyer and gotten off. Or refused a breathalyzer test. You'll still get arrested and booked...and ultimately have a mugshot taken.
