Not if the pics get tossed because they were done without a warrant and while denying an explicit request to talk to his lawyer first.
It wouldn’t be the first case to get tossed because outraged cops thought they didn’t have to follow due process rules because they don’t like a defendant.
I understand the emotion, but not the lack of professionalism.
when locked up after arrest they take body shots of all identifying marks and tattoos
apparently you never had the “bend over and spread them or lift it and separate them”
