&ldquo;There are some beautiful mug shots. I don't think mine's particularly stunning,&rdquo; Stewart said. &ldquo;I actually think it's a bad photo of me. If you see me in person, I don't really look the same as I do in that mug shot. I don't think it's a great photo of me.&rdquo;

University student who went viral for glamorous mugshot arrested second time within weeks

Lego has asked the Murrieta Police Department in Southern California to stop adding Lego heads to cover suspects's faces in social media posts. Since 2023, the police department has been using Lego heads and emojis to cover people's faces in posts on social sites.

Lego has asked the Murrieta Police Department in Southern California to stop adding Lego heads to cover suspects's faces in social media posts. Since 2023, the police department has been using Lego heads and emojis to cover people's faces in posts on social sites. However, the posts went viral last week after the department posted a statement about their policy. The department wrote, "The Murrieta Police Department prides itself in its transparency with the community, but also honours everyone's rights & protections as afforded by law; even suspects." Several law enforcement agencies in the US have posted pictures on social media titled "Mugshot Mondays" or "Wanted Wednesdays" to boost community engagement. ALSO READ | Baltimore Bridge Collapse: Five facts to know about Francis Scott Key Bridge However, according to California's new law, police departments and sheriff's offices must remove the face from any booking photo on social media. This includes people arrested for violent offences. On March 19, Lego, the toy company, reached out to the Murrieta Police Department. Lt Jeremy Durrat said in a statement, "They respectfully asked us to refrain from using their intellectual property in our social media content, which, of course, we understand and will comply with." "We are currently exploring other methods to continue publishing our content in a way that is engaging and interesting to our followers," Durrant wrote. The California law's primary sponsor and assembly member, Corey Jackson, told AP that while the Lego head protects people's privacy, he wonders how Murrieta residents see it. "Do they want people, who are being paid with their tax dollars, be paid to put Lego faces on people so it can be shown on social media? While they could be doing other things that could be protecting them?" Jackson said. "That's for them to decide," he added. According to Jackson, the use of Lego heads by Murrieta is legal. However, he pointed out that other agencies are attempting to exploit legal loopholes by posting pictures of suspects in police cars or handcuffed at crime scenes, claiming that these images are not booking photos. As a result, Jackson and his team are seeking a legal opinion from the state Department of Justice. "If law enforcement wants the public to trust them, and wants to support them as they say they want to implement law and order, how does their active gamesmanship on trying to skirt the law themselves, help them in achieving that?" he said.

‘Stop putting our heads on your mugshots,’ Toy company Lego tells California police

For the Donald Trump campaign, a mug shot was recently proven to be more than $7 million. A campaign spokesperson said, on Saturday (August 26) that they have managed to raise $7.1 million since Thursday when he was booked at a county jail in the state of Georgia and became the first sitting or former US president to suffer the fate of having to pose for a prison mugshot.&nbsp;

<h2>What happened?</h2>

Trump spokesman Steven Cheung took to X (formerly known as Twitter) and said that since the former president’s appearance to have his mug shot taken after he surrendered at an Atlanta jail, the campaign has received some $7.1 million.&nbsp;

He also claimed that on Friday (August 25) alone, Trump brought in $4.18 million, making it the highest-grossing day of his campaign so far.&nbsp;

This was a day after Trump was booked on more than a dozen felony charges stemming from his efforts to overturn his 2020 election defeat in Georgia.

The Trump campaign official also said that the former president has managed to raise close to $20 million in funds in the past three weeks. This coincides with Trump’s indictment and arraignment in Washington related to the federal January 6 case as well as the racketeering and fraud case in Atlanta, Georgia.&nbsp;

<h2>Trump mug shot merch</h2>

It is also worth noting that hours after the Fulton County Jail, Georgia released Trump’s mugshot, his 2024 presidential campaign site released a line of merchandise featuring his booking photo.&nbsp;

While Trump is trying to prove that he is innocent the White House hopeful’s campaign did not leave this opportunity to cash in on Trump’s historic mugshot and released a line of T-shirts, mugs, posters, and even beer Koozies.&nbsp;

A report by CNN citing Trump’s campaign source said that the sales have contributed to the high fundraising totals.&nbsp;

<h2>Former president’s mounting legal troubles</h2>

Trump, who was elected president in 2016 but lost his reelection bid to incumbent Joe Biden in 2020 has sought the Republican Party’s nomination for another shot at the White House, in the upcoming 2024 elections.&nbsp;

However, the former president is also in the midst of facing four indictments, including two related to his false claims that the 2020 election was stolen and the January 6 attack by his followers on the US Capitol in Washington DC.&nbsp;

The recent fundraising figures indicate that his mounting legal charges have failed to dent Trump’s standing in the Republican presidential primary where he is still leading in the polls.&nbsp;
