Lego Requests Police Stop Using Toy Heads on Mugshots

Lego has requested the Murrieta Police Department in Southern California to stop using their toy heads to cover suspects' faces in photos shared on social media, prompting the department to comply and explore other methods for publishing content. The police department had been using Lego heads to protect suspects' identities in accordance with the law, but the practice drew attention and led to the toy company's request. California legislation prohibits law enforcement from sharing photos of suspects arrested for nonviolent crimes and requires the removal of suspect mugshots from social media after 14 days, unless special circumstances exist.

"California Police Department Shields Suspects' Identities with LEGO Heads"

The Murrieta Police Department in California has been using LEGO heads to cover the faces of suspects in their social media posts, in an effort to gain attention and comply with state laws restricting the posting of mugshots. This practice began after the state legislature passed laws preventing law enforcement from posting mugshots on social media, except in certain situations. While some departments continue to post photos of suspects taken during arrests, the Murrieta Police Department has received a request from The LEGO Group to stop using their trademarked images and will comply with the request while finding another way to block suspects' faces in accordance with the law.
