A new state law makes the mugshots for offenders of almost any crime available to the public again.
A 2022 law had limited which mugshots law enforcement could release to the public. The idea was to protect people who had been arrested for something they're ultimately found not guilty of.
But the law reportedly caused confusion among law enforcement as to which mugshots could be released.
In addition, reported arrests of people with commonly shared names caused confusion unless a face was attached.
