Me again! T-1 day til (hopefully) sentencing

1. Will there definitely have been a mugshot? My husband doesn't remember much about the day of arrest but doesn't recall having one taken. That seems surprising so I expect he did have one.

2. did anyone's person completely escape media? Particularly if you were in mags court throughout?

Hi there. My person had a mugshot, finger prints etc. Also after plea hearing and signing on the register he had to have photographs taken of any tattoos. As you know we didn't escape the press but a photograph wasn't printed by the police or press. Somebody in the comments section did however post a picture which they'd got from the vigilante 'sting'. Will be thinking of you and your girls xx

I can’t thing of a reason why he wouldn’t have been photographed whilst in custody it’s a standard procedure alongside fingerprinting and DNA sampling. The police need an up-to-date picture of suspects in case they skip bail.

Also, even if the police don’t release the custody photo it doesn’t mean that the media won’t find a picture from another source. Someone who works for the same organisation I do in a different part of the country was recently convicted of multiple contact offences and the papers took a photo of him in uniform from his Facebook page.

My person was at magistrates throughout and there was no media. We are in a big city, which I'm sure helped. The fear of it took quite a while to go.

Lisa, just wanted to say I will be thinking of you tomorrow and hoping it's the outcome you wish for. Tomorrow is a new chapter.
