I don’t know.

The police generally know the criminals in their jurisdiction surprisingly well. If a victim ID's the perptrator from mug shots, that means they can arrest a bad boy they don't want on the streets. The police can make the crime fit the man every time. Many a man is serving time for a crime he didn't commit, but whom the police "know" is not innocent of other crimes.
It's wrong and justice has nothing to do with it. It's more like practical urban housekeeping.
Mug books get populated by criminals. I obviously know nothing about this particular man. However, if he had an extensive criminal record, even of petty crimes, we ought to hear about it.
