I'm not sure that makes the trade right. If you think they shouldn't be public (I don't) then it certainly wouldn't. Just to be clear: having a mugshot does not mean you're a criminal. It means the person was arrested, not convicted (charged with a crime). I'm not finding good statistics but other data makes it seem reasonably high. Even if very low it would still violate the spirit of "innocent until proven guilty"
