When you mess up on duty? I would hardly call making someone remove a head covering so that they can get a mug shot of a criminal fucking up. And just an FYI, this payout means that us citizens paid for it. That money comes out of our paychecks. Or at least those in New York City paying for that department. The government, city, law enforcement, ect getting sued is never a win for us citizens unless it results in a law change for the better. In this case, a law change should be made that they should be forced to remove their headwear and take a mug shot. |
They can already ask to show hair to determine hair color, and by all accounts a cop should know this.
A mug shot is for identification, i.e. your face should be seen. You shouldn't be passing more laws, you should train your cops better.
