      The truth is it could be anyone arrested in the last decade or so and it's a miscarriage of justice. My husband got pulled over and arrested because he was designated driver and before going out drinking a
      friend's of a friend had robbed a house so the cops arrests everyone in the vehicle, all 8 guys. My husband is army and has top secret clearance for his job. Fortunately, he was able to explain it to his commander and because he was the being a responsible NCO by being the DD he was able to pass it off as privates (e-1 to e-3 rank) are stupid but it could have devastated his military career. Despicable!

      I’m sure I could write an entire paper, just chronicling how Cracked Magazine, a publication that started out, according to my mother, as the even more low-brow kid brother of Mad Magazine, became one of the most hard-hitting vanguards of American journalism, in a time when even reputable news publications are being swayed by corporate fudging, hearsay, and duplicitous bad-faith representatives... and all this change happened seemingly overnight.
      It’s like if the Garbage Pail Kid cards became the only media source you could trust. I’m sure there’s a fascinating story behind how this shift occurred, but I’m lazy and hate research.
      If I had to guess though... it probably started with hiring more female editors.

      Usually when it's a minor all the stuff is sealed so unless a judge orders someone to see it they can't. It's to protect minors. Like how unless the victim or their family say so, child victims never have their identities shown.

    I know it'll never happen, but if we didn't stigmatize people for simply being arrested, these parasites wouldn't have a business model.

      Yes, it is a big part of the problem in America, I have noticed. Guilty until proven innocent.
      Arrested for something? You must be guilty. Accused of something, especially more than once? Must be guilty.
      In some cases, even the courts have gone on that line. Like with the recent COX case, where internet service provider COX lost Safe Harbor because the court felt that the companies bombarding them with DMCA takedown notices (which is ACCUSATIONS of copyright infringements) against their customers is the same as their customers having definitely broken the law. They read "repeat infringement" in the DMCA to mean "repeat accusation" instead of "repeated convictions".
      Which is funny to me as an outsider, since US is just about the only place where you hear people shout "we got JUSTICE" or "we bring JUSTICE". True justice is to dig a little deeper than the surface, look at the facts and see what really happen, build your opinion on the final answer and not just take things at face value for a swift conclusion. A bullet may be fast, but it's better to catch a fish with a rod than a rifle.

    I think this is my new favorite quote: "I think the ease of understanding with which we employ 'It makes sense from a business stand-point' these days, is deeply troubling. Because it implies on our part, a tasked complicity in a system where practices that we all acknowledge to be inherently unfair and morally bankrupt, are okay because “business” as a concept, exists in a separate plain divorced from any sense of decency where making the most money at the fastest rate trumps literally anything else." - Daniel O’Brien

      I think the argument for taking mugshots and for making them publicly accessible is, as Dan said in the video, an insurance against you being arrested and vanished by corrupt police.
      Publicly accessible doesn't have to mean readily available from a Google search, though. Obviously.

    • @AleksandrKramarenko
      @AleksandrKramarenko 7 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      Maybe just make it so only a government organization is allowed to publish/spread the mugshot on request, and make it illegal to make money off a mugshot. You'd then need to request the specific mugshot you want and you are not allowed to make it public yourself or sell it.

    my mugshot appeared every 5 minutes in a news article on a huge screen on the face of the biggest mall in town. the charges were dropped ofcourse but the news website continued to show the article on the building for a whole month, even though everything in the article was either false or grossly exagerated. this led to lots of people thinking i was a criminal and in some cases some people even called me out when i went outside in public spaces.
    a lawyer told me that suing the website would have ultimately cost me more than i would have possibly gained, so in the end i just had to wait for the whole thing to blow over and hope people dont google my name.

      And in a digitalized-technologically focused country/world, all of these things are stacked against you in addition to your state of being at war with yourself, and living alone in a society of less forgiving and understanding of one's neighbors and their struggles.
      Every aspect and so many potential opportunities of one's life... You need a job, you need an opportunity to rent a house or the opposite end of the income scale and someone who is struggling to get the food stamps they need to get nutrition requirements to uphold the job and ensure the health and stability needed to do so.
      Jail and prison were supposedly created to be punishment and rehabilitation, but they don't, they're established to make profits off of unfortunate individuals that get trapped in their systemized entanglement within the monetization of destruction of people's identities and overall wellbeing.
      What have we established the criminal system for?....? Is it working?..?
      For whom?
      Is that just/justice ⚖️?
      Should we discuss making some changes to better utilize ALL OF THE RESOURCES that we are dumping into these (financially succeeding!), but overall, failed industries and practices for our neighborhoods and society?
      Compare ours to other countries, even, especially with ones that are focused on the rehabilitation aspects instead...?..?
      * Or even be able to discuss things with each other appropriately, such as can someone who has killed someone exist (appropriately) in society?
      * Or are they forever damaged and deemed as unwell, unsafe, or even unemployable?
      * Reminder to everyone to please, never to forget about the "case-to-case basis"...
      Everyone is an individual and dealing with his/her own struggles, some that we can relate with, and some that we may never even be able to imagine. ✌️&❤️ & ⚖️

    It makes my stomach fold every time I hear of this kind of thing happening. Thank God I don't have any mugshots.

    I know these types of videos and scripted ones like After Hours have a much higher work investment required, but they are seriously the best content of the channel and are why I'm still subscribed and put up with the clickbait and constant text only videos (which are sometimes ok, but generally not that great).

    Fun fact: if you are never processed into holding, the mugshot is taken but never uploaded to any database. It's true. Get somebody to bail you out extremely quickly and you can avoid the whole mugshot problem.

    cracked explains. is amazing.
    i loved john oliver's show until the election got close and i soured on it the way i did on CC.
    way to go guys!!! great videos, i already love the crowd here so tackling these understated issues (even if a show is 'light on jokes') with the conversational, witty tone WITHOUT feeling a monolithic network breathing down the hosts' necks is refreshing.

    I'm amazed that these types of photos even get out into the public. I work at the police outside of the US and we take data privacy extremely seriously. When we write press releases about things that happened, we never publish personal information about the people doing it or send their mugshots along, because that type of data is private and not of interest to the public, exactly because it could have a negative impact on someone's life for no reason at all. This is what always amused me about news articles from the US where they print names and mugshots of criminals. If I were to even mention the name of somebody who might have done something wrong, or hell, just someone being brought into the police station for questioning, I'd be fired immediately.

    Great video Dan, as always. I would just say that the credit report thing is harder to correct than you might think. Jon Oliver did a piece on this and I have personally known people who got the run around from credit agencies when they were clearly not the same person the credit reports thought they were.

    I don't trust any person who hasn't been to prison. Having been to prison doesn't guarantee you're a decent human being, but being able to witness the evil and injustice of the sociopathic capitalist hegemony and avoid going to prison fighting it definitely means you're not.

    the website for the local newstation has a section literally dedicated to recent arrests with mugshots. it’s disgusting. but i guess the tiny disclaimer about people being innocent until proven guilty at the bottom of the page makes everything okay /s
